Q:

Start TinyOS programming and simulation in Windows

I want to start programming nesC for wireless sensor network on TinyOS in Windows environment. So far, I installed Cygwin terminal, and don't know how to install those packages. 
To install the package, the command is like " rpm ***" but not sun command in Cygwin, it's Linux based.  Is there any one can help?

A:

So if you want to install TinyOS in windows, the simplest way is to run the virtual machine for windows, the steps could be found here:
