When install msys, it floods the terminal with:
This is a post install process that will try to normalize betweenyour MinGW
install if any as well as your previous MSYS installs if any.  I don't have any
traps as aborts will not hurt anything.Do you wish to continue with the post

installed? [yn ] pi.sh: [: ==: unary operator expectedWhen you install MinGW I
suggest you install it to C:/mingw(replace C: with the drive of your choice). 
Then create an/etc/fstab file with a line that has a value similar to:C:/mingw

directory.Please be sure to rename this file to mingw32-make.exe once youve   
echo installed MinGW-1.1 because it\s very deficient in function.Press ENTER to
continue.C:\msys\1.0\postinstall>pause
Press Return key to continue: 

Towards the end. It looks like something that should be in a cmd prompt
(haven't tested on windows yet). The line endings are also wrong, but that's
another bug.
