A reasonable suggestion.  The list of packages that setup will install is 
always available at http://cygwin.com/packages/ as well.  This is a 
searchable list that allows you to look for the package that contains your
favorite utility, in case you don't know what package that utility would 
be in.  Both of these methods are the best tools for determining what's
available from www.cygwin.com.
