Charm++ parallel programming system

[Gengbin Zheng <gzheng AT uiuc.edu>]

Please find README.win under charm top level directory for the 
instruction on how to install Charm++ on windows.
Cygwin is required. Installing Cygwin on windows vista has all sorts of 
problems (mostly hang during installation). There are some workaround if 
you search on the web.
