Martin Rubey provides the following instructions for running FriCAS? on Cygwin (original in German, Google English translation follows):

FriCAS? unter MS Windows:

Damit FriCAS? auf MS Windows laufen kann, benötigen wir Cygwin.

Hole also das Programm setup.exe von Cygwin und starte es.

Beantworte alle Fragen mit den vorgegebenen Antworten, bis Du beim "Select packages" Dialog angekommen bist. Hier müssen wir zusätzlich zu den vorgegebenen Paketen das Paket emacs-x11 (und vermutlich xinit) auswählen.

Die restlichen Fragen können wieder mit den vorgegebenen Antworten beantwortet werden.

Erstelle das Verzeichnis C:\cygwin-local, und speichere dann die Datei fricas-1.0.8.cygwin.clisp.tar.bz2 darin ab.

Starte nochmals das Programm setup.exe, wähle aber diesmal die Option "Install from local directory", und gib als "Local Package Directory" (NICHT als "Root Directory"!) C:\cygwin-local an. Bei der Paketauswahl sollte dann FriCAS? aufscheinen. Wenn alles geklappt hat, kannst Du durch Anklicken des Cygwin Symbols eine Konsole öffnen, dort gib dann

ein.

FriCAS? MS Windows:

Thus FriCAS? can run on MS Windows, we need Cygwin.

So get the program setup.exe from Cygwin and run it.

Answer all questions with the answers given to you at the "Select packages" dialog have arrived. Here we also need to set emacs-x11 package, the package (and probably choose xinit).

The remaining questions can be replied to with the given answers.

Create the directory C:\cygwin-local, and then save the file fricas-1.0.8.cygwin.clisp.tar.bz2 there.

Run the setup.exe program again, but this time select the option "Install from local directory" and enter as a "Local Package Directory" (NOT as "Root Directory"!) C:\cygwin-local. In the package selection should then select FriCAS?. If all goes well, you can click on the Cygwin icon to open a console, then enter it
