Steven Penny d5a8c42eb1 apt-msys2 
This is a file similar to apt-cyg. It will install packages from the MSYS2
project. It will only be practical for packages from the "MINGW" repo, as
packages from the "MSYS2" repo would require the MSYS2 dll.

I have a need for this because Cygwin Tcl/Tk requires X11. MSYS2 Tcl/Tk does not
require X11, so it can run much faster.

apt-cyg

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 list [pattern(s)] to list packages matching given pattern. If no pattern is given, list all installed packages.
  • apt-cyg show <pattern(s)> to show packages matching patterns
  • apt-cyg search <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
