Re: Utilities


Mike,

Everything is accessible in one place (via many mirrors, of course): The Setup.exe program can download and install everything you're looking for, including (optionally) source code.

If you want to know which package contains which file, go to <http://cygwin.com/packages/> and enter a file name (it's a good idea to include the ".exe" suffix for short names like "vi").

By the way, Cygwin makes a symlink to vim.exe providing the alias "vi", but the program is vim.exe. If you look for "vi.exe" you'll get packages that include executables whose (base) names end with "dvi" (TeX related, of course).
