Hi,
This is my first package proposal for Cygwin, hopefully the package is
ready for consideration:
http://www.users.on.net/~ccormie/other/cyg-apt/
This is a Cygwin-specific package: not in any other Linux distro.
http://code.google.com/p/cyg-apt/
category: Utils
requires: cygwin coreutils python gnupg
sdesc: "A command-line Cygwin package manager"
ldesc: "A command-line Cygwin package manager.
Allows you to install and remove packages on the command line, and
provides other package management functions. It has a command syntax
similar to apt-get and dpkg.
--------------------------------------------
Cyg-apt work primarily from within Cygwin. It is aimed at users needing
fine-grained control and information. Apt-get/dpkg style interface.
Commands:
