I am no w2k or cygwin expert, but you could try:

cd /dir/where/20020422_... exists
psql
create database my_new_db;
\c my_new_db
\i 20020422_project_summaries.gz

This sort of assumes that file is from pg_dump and is not
just a csv (or some other format) of plain data.
If it is just data, you would need to create your
table structure, then \copy or COPY the data in to
the tables.
