It simply means "cygwin1.dll" is not in your searching path.  If you are
running your program under DOS (sounds to me like this), you should add the
directory where "cygwin1.dll" located to your searching path, i.e., put
something like this in your autoexec.bat file:

SET PATH=C:\CYGNUS\CYGWIN~1\H-I586~1\BIN;%PATH%

I don't think you will have problem running it under cygwin since the
corresponding directory should have been added to your searching path by
"cygnus.bat" when you start it up.  Hope this helps,
