Go back to the MinGW site and look for MSYS. This is a UNIX=3Dlike =
shell that will
allow you to build GMP on Windows 2000. I have found that although GMP =
is fine,
the MPFR library doesn't work on Windows.

Hi
I downloaded the gnu mp package.=20
Note that I'm a windows user (windows 2000)
While reading documentation, I read that on windows systems, I should =
use Unix-Like Tools to build gmp.h on, the only header needed to call =
gmp functions (is it true?).
Then I decided to download it, but on the mingw site there are too =
packages for download.
Since I had no idea, I downloaded the "mingw" package, containing all =
the packages at the latest release.
I installed mingw but I still don't know what I have to do.
I did not understand how can I should run "./configure" on my system.
