As a newbie, please avail yourself of the existing resources when you have
questions like this.  In particular, this is a good one to take to the FAQ:

> FAQ:                   http://cygwin.com/faq/

Using it, you would find:

<http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.setup.what-packages>

 From there, you'd know to search the available packages and find:
