Dig for CygWin?

[Chris Buxton]

To get dig for Windows, just download the BIND package. Don't install  
it unless you want it to install and start named. Instead, copy out  
the various .dll's, plus the executables that you want: dig, host,  
etc. Put them all together somewhere in a directory, and then make  
sure that the $PATH variable includes that directory.
