This is posted for my own reference for installing the statistical machine translation decoder Moses with SRILM on a WinXP system, hopefully it'll help anyone else having difficulties with the setup. Install Cygwin Get Cygwin Install required packages Ensure that the following packages will be installed: For general compiling - binutils, gcc/g++, make For SRILM - diffutils (needed for ‘cmp’ command when testing), gawk, perl, tcltk, tcsh For Moses - autoconf, automake, python (for running tuning script), rsync (for script generation), zlib Note: Select "View Full" to make the search easier. Run Cygwin Run Cygwin to ensure successful installation and initialize your bash profile, then quit by typing $ logout Install SMT decoder Moses on WinXP - Part 2
