It works --- with input foo, it brings the user to
http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=foo. I can't think of a reason
I'd want to use this thing though.

How do you provide input?  I ostensibly installed it but it doesn't show
up in add-ons or anywhere else that I've looked.

Click the icon next to the search box in the address bar. You'll see a bunch of
search engines; one of them will have the Cygwin logo.

Ah, thanks.  I don't have that toolbar so I didn't see this.

I set it up temporarily.  It's cute but I don't think I'd ever use it.
