I'll add my comments to those of Ross Walker.

As Ross suggested, it is best to work program by program. Programs like
sander don't need anything from cygwin (if you define F90_TIMER in the
config file), and so lahey will probably produce a cygwin-independent
executable. Although I haven't used visual studio, I'm surprised that
file endings have to be changed: look the free-format flag in config.h and
see if that can't do what you need.

ptraj and leap are probably the only programs that _really_ require cygwin,
but it may take some fiddling to get the others to work.

If you really want to run this on a _DOS_ machine (not MS Windows), none
of these ideas will work. But I'm assuming for now that this is not what
you want.
