Cygwin Package Manager (native)

There are many alternatives out there for having an apt-like Package Manager for Cygwin (as well documented here) like:

• apt-cyg
• cyg-apt
• The GUI (too mainstream)
• Some more...

But, as a challange, i didn't want to install anything and do everything i needed using only Cygwin inbuilt CLI commands.

On Cygwin FAQ webpage at chapter 2.3 you can find a list of all the parameters you can pass to the setup to automate things, like specify which architecture, proxy to use AND which packages to install or uninstall.

# --------------------------------------------
# Here we could define our GLOBAL variables.
#       Using `declare -r` makes the variable read-only (just like a constant in other languages)
# --------------------------------------------
declare -r BOLD='\033[1m';
declare -r NORMAL='\033[0m';
