Hi, everyone.
I met another question when I tried to install the ROMS.
After I installed Cygwin and tried to install g95, I didn't have the function "g95" in my pc, so I can't carry out this command, "tar -xvzf g95-x86-cygwin.tgz.tar"
Anyone could help me?
Where to find the function "tar"
Tar is an old, old Unix utility. Here's the gnu version: http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/

It may be that you don't have tar installed, in which case you can install it with Cygwin setup.
The more likely problem is that the file name you give, "g95-x86-cygwin.tgz.tar" has a redundant ".tar" on the end. This was probably added by Internet Explorer during the download. Rename it "g95-x86-cygwin.tgz" and try again.
Be warned that there are a few more non-trivial steps to do before you can build a ROMS application. The ones I can think of off-hand are:

- Once you have g95 working with Cygwin, you will need to build the netCDF library from source and install it.
- You will need to install Perl (via Cygwin setup) in order to run the cpp_clean script.
