apt-cyg (Arlen's Modified version)

apt-cyg is a Cygwin package manager. It includes 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

Arlen's Update

Added NodeJS and NPM istaller for CygWin.

  • apt-cyg install nodejs to install NodeJS and NPM
  • apt-cyg remove nodejs to remove NodeJS and NPM
  • npm config list -l to show version and configuration details.
