Thanks, Limbic~Region.

PUGS on MS Windows looks like a good place to start if you want PUGS to play with Windows and ActiveState. Monastery post Hello Perl 6. Running pugs on Windows makes me pretty optimistic as well :)

FWIW, the binary windows installer for GHC.

Secondly, GHC Contributors indicates that GHC works with windows targetting mingw and cygwin. I seem to recall a chatterbox interaction the upshot of which was that getting PUGS to install on Cygwin was less than trivial, which come to think of it is what prompted me to ask whether PUGS could be installed on a windows box. Maybe this was a red herring though and I don't even need cygwin...

I just downloaded GHC for windows and will see if I can get PUGS onto my win box today, without cygwin. If anyone else has light to shed about this, would be great :)
