You know, this attitude won't get you much help normally...
Still, I will give you a tip: the cygwin shell is much different than the windows normal "shell" (cmd.exe). You 're trying to run a script made for one shell (cygwin) inside a different shell (cmd.exe). This doesn't work and it gives you strange syntax errors (look at your first post).
Now, I don't use cygwin myself (I prefer the Real Thing) so I can't give you advice. But the info I gave you above should help you to find your way around it (or someone else to help you).

I suppose you are using a Makefile. It would be useful to post it here.

I'll grant you that, but its very frustrating to get an off the cuff response to a post that I would have a syntax error, instead of something a little more substantially wrong with my setup. I too would love to work within the real thing, except that the rest of the tools / everyone else here / runs M$ windows....
I have renamed or removed any other make.exe on my C:\ to remove the issue of it calling the wrong make file... now I am sure its something wrong with my settings, and I'm sure its trivial, but I am very new to manually setting up an IDE as flexible and generic (these are good things) as Code::Blocks to work with my tools.
