Installing or reinstalling Cygwin...  lots of packages.

Cygwin now has a -P command line for feeding comma separated list of packages to install.  Should be easier then clicking all those boxes.

now using apt-cyg to install packages: https://code.google.com/p/apt-cyg/
$wget http://apt-cyg.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/apt-cyg
$chmod +x apt-cyg
$mv apt-cyg /usr/local/bin

apt-cyg (not cyg-apt) was working...  change in repos for Cygwin to differentiate between x86 (32-bit) and x86_64 breaks the apt-cyg script.  Fix detailed in issue 31 (https://code.google.com/p/apt-cyg/issues/update.do?id=31#makechanges).  Diff below will fix.

My journey with PowerShell, Git, GitHub (CygWin, Strawberry Perl already installed)

PowerShell - already on Win7+
-create profile folder ~/Documents/WindowsPowershell/
-create modules folder ~/Documents/WindowsPowershell/Modules
-Keep this handy: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee692764.aspx
-recommend 
  installing Chocolatey:  http://chocolatey.org/ (you'll need something like CPAN for Perl to keep track of PS stuff and other things)
		to install:
		cmd.exe> @powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy unrestricted -Command "iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET PATH=%PATH%;%systemdrive%\chocolatey\bin - See more at: http://chocolatey.org/#sthash.5KjLIpD5.dpuf
