apt-cyg
=======
Apt-cyg, an apt-get like tool for Cygwin
apt-cyg is a command-line installer for Cygwin which cooperates with Cygwin Setup and uses the same repository. The syntax is similar to apt-get. Usage examples:
* "apt-cyg install <package names>" to install packages
* "apt-cyg remove <package names>" to remove packages
* "apt-cyg update" to update setup.ini
* "apt-cyg show" to show installed packages
* "apt-cyg find <pattern(s)>" to find packages matching patterns
* "apt-cyg describe <pattern(s)>" to describe packages matching patterns
* "apt-cyg packageof <commands or files>" to locate parent packages
Quick start
-----------
apt-cyg is a simple script. Once you have a copy, make it executable:
# chmod +x /bin/apt-cyg
Optionally place apt-cyg in a bin/ folder on your path.
Then use apt-cyg, for example:
# apt-cyg install nano
