I have a c program devolped for linux which includes header files

i need windows equivalent header files for the following:
<termios.h>
<sys/types.h>
<sys/stat.h>
<fcntl.h>
<unistd.h>
<errno.h>
<sys/ioctl.h>
What should i do and how do i proceed...?

Take a look at cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com/). From the site :

Cygwin is a Linux-like environment for Windows. It consists of
two parts:

- A DLL (cygwin1.dll) which acts as a Linux API emulation layer
providing substantial Linux API functionality.
- A collection of tools, which provide Linux look and feel.

If you are lucky, your code might just compile and run without
any changes.

That last sentence also applies to DJGPP, at www.delorie.com. The
result will execute much faster than under Cygwin, and port to
other dos like systems.
