Since I’m doing the new install thing, I figured I’d record some of my setup. So here is my cygwin install.

  • Internet utilities: wget, curl, ping, openssh, openssl-devel, mysql, nc
  • Program compilation stuff: gcc-g++, autoconf, pkg-config, automake
  • Programming languages: perl, python
  • Other utilities for programming: git, sqlite3
  • Text editor: nano

Mintty [non-default] options:
  • Text->Locale=en_US UTF-8
  • Mouse->Copy on select=Off
  • Mouse->Clicks place command line cursor=On

I also haven’t decided yet if I will do apache or PHP via cygwin or windows installs yet. May do a post about that later.
