I find the current setup process for Cygwin a bit cumbersome and over burdened. It doesn't have to be and you can have a small Cygwin footprint. This project will help provide you with instruction and zip files for a basic setup.

Features

  • Simple Install of Cygwin with port of Arch Linux's pacman
  • Static libraries are used for all binaries that are not required to be a shared library.
  • Built sources are delivered in split packages.
