To do that, enter the command:<pre>oft-uninstall.bash</pre> ----- ==To-Do List== #'''Test Cygwin''' [http://www.cygwin.com/ Cygwin] projects provide a Linux terminal in Windows. To compile the Open Foris you need to compile GDAL manually: Download from the [http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/DownloadSource gdal official repository] (e.g gdal-1.8.1.tar.gz) and install using the following commands commands: <pre> cd ~ tar -xvwzf gdal-1.8.1.tar.gz cd gdal-1.8.1 ./configure make make install </pre> By the cygwin setup.exe select gsl library (http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/): gsl , gsl-app , gsl-devel , gsl-doc and install. At this point you can install OpenForis: <pre>wget http://foris.fao.org/static/geospatialtoolkit/
