With Linux I am using xclip to read the X11 clipboard.
Is there a cygwin equivalent to read the Windows clipboard?
My use case is:
The user copies file names to the clipboard and then starts a program
which processes these files.

Is it possible from an interactive bash to search for cygwin packages (by
substring match) and install them?
I tried "/setup-x86_64.exe -h" but cannot see any options for it.
In the past I used apt-cyg for this task, but it is depreciated and it
does not work any more.

I need an UNIX-alike update shell script, without clicky-pointy.
Is this a correct way:
apt-cyg update-setup
apt-cyg update
apt-cyg dist-upgrade
?
I have testet it that way and it LOOKS ok, but maybe I am missing
something?

On a real UNIX I would use /var/run, because after a shutdown all its
content is lost.
But on cygwin /var/run is stored on disk.
I cannot use an environment variable, because different processes need to

/lib/debug/usr/bin/cygwin1.dbg has 24 MB. Does cygwin really need it or is

In /client/bin are my own programs, mostly Perl scripts

I can run them there but not on a Windows 8 64 bit: no (error) message,

I have written a program, which uses inotify(wait) to send new created or
modified files.
Since inotify is a Linux kernel service, my program does not run with
Cygwin.
Is there a similar service "tell me of new files in this directory tree"
in Windows which I can use instead?

So far, this works great, but now it tries to install a new mintty.exe,
