=== A note about cygwin ===
<b><i>(Skip this unless you know what you are doing!)</i></b>
If you have a working perl and ruby under cygwin and if they are in <code>PATH</code>, this might already work for ConTeXt (although it's a better idea to use native Windows versions). However, if the inclusion of libraries in ruby fails (because of conversion of path names) and if you object to install ruby again, try setting the environmental variable <code>RUBYLIB</code>:
set RUBYLIB=/cygdrive/c/[Path to MikTeX or other distr.]/scripts/context/ruby
<!-- <i>My Computer -> Properties -> Advanced -> Environment Variables -> New</i>
<!-- * Variable name: <code>RUBYLIB</code>
<!--* Variable value: <code>/cygdrive/c/<i>[Path to MikTeX or other distr.]</i>/scripts/context/ruby</code> -->
