Segmentation fault means the linker crashed with some sort of access violation. Why, I can't say.

I sort of gave up on SWR code and tried out GodWars,I think I'm getting the same message as he is.All the C files have been turned to Object files,but when it tries to make the exe file,it feeds out an error:

$ make
rm -f merc
gcc -O -o merc act_comm.o act_info.o act_move.o act_obj.o act_wiz.o comm.o cons
t.o db.o fight.o handler.o interp.o magic.o save.o special.o update.o clan_table
.o kav_wiz.o kav_fight.o kav_info.o clan.o more.o artifact.o home.o rot_wiz.o de
mon.o werewolf.o olc.o string.o bit.o imc.o imc-interp.o imc-version.o imc-mail.
o imc-util.o imc-events.o imc-config.o imc-mercbase.o ice.o icec.o icec-mercbase
.o core.o
collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault]
make: *** [merc] Error 1

Can you derive anything from this jibberish talk?

If you click on the "system" menu (top LH corner) and then select the menu item "Edit -> Mark" you will then be able drag the mouse over the error message. When it is highlighted press <Enter> and the highlighted text will be copied to the Clipboard.

Then you can paste it into a message here.

Take another look at the Cygwin install. You should see an image like the one below. You need to click inside the install window and scroll bars will appear, and click on the categories (eg. Devel) to see the individual files. In the screen dump you can see, near the bottom, gcc, the compilers.

Cygwin install example - 24K

Sounds like you didn't install 'make' when you installed Cygwin. Make sure you install make and the C compiler.

Detailed information about doing compiles, getting a compiler, making changes, and other useful topics are in the web page How to make changes, including compiling. Whilst this is written for SMAUG, a great deal also applies to ROM as well.
