how to unpack and repack squash CG.smg under windows
I have written a little guide, so that you can compile CG43 and CG52 under Windows without the need for Linux. More info
Update:
There is a problem with mksquashfs, that was a point I was not to sure about, if the mksquashfs.exe which was compiled on my PC would be possible to transfer faultless to other Cygwin installations, as it seems it does not. So we have to use plan "B", the own compile of squashfs-tools 2.1.
Working on a guide for that right now, is not that difficult.
2nd Update:
The guide has been updated to plan "B".
Should work now. Just start the Setup.exe again, click through it until you come to the package selection window and follow the guide.
3. UPDATE Thanks to acidland there is now also an unsquashfs command, with which you can unpack smg file (as long as they are squashfs filesystem!)

Reason: Updated
there is something happening that i don't get, i followed the guide word by word, installed the cgywin & copy the two file (msquashfs & unsquashfs) to C:cgywin/bin, created the folder test, copied the CG43.smg to usr/local, tried the command "unsquashfs" & get Nothing!!!
Note: I opened the bin folder, double click both commands "msquashfs" & "unsquashfs" get an error: "This application is failed to start because cygz.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem"... also, when i used the commands "mksquashfs -version" & "unsquashfs -v" it gives me nothing...
