This feature doesn't exist (yet). You could possibly build something equivalent using 'cygcheck -p' and then processing it's output, but patches to setup to add this feature would be welcome. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

It took all of 5 seconds for me to remember a bunch of packages with a "-" in the name, so came up with this instead: cyginst() { # install cygwin package(s) from the commandline, can't do *-src _pkg=$(cygcheck -p "$1" \ | grep "$1" \ | fzf --multi --reverse \ | sed -E 's_-[0-9]+.*$__' \ | tr '\n' ',' \ | sed 's_,$__') /setup-x86_64.exe --packages "$_pkg" } Since this would whack -src, I tried to figure out how to install just a source package from the commandline to see if this would matter but couldn't figure it out, so I guess the -I option is there for a reason. But I came across a weirdity with setup (2.908). While you can change the mode into download (-D) only or local-install (-L) via commandline, I couldn't figure out how to change it back to "install from the internet" from the commandline. I think there should be a parameter for this, but heck if I I have any idea about C++ (I can barely spell it). At a minimum, it seems that the code currently is in contradiction to the --help output: once you choose -L or -D, that becomes the default mode for subsequent runs. Until explicitly changed back by running setup and clicking the appropriate button on the second dialog. It looks like the "last-action" setting in /etc/setup/setup.rc controls what is used as the default: "Download", "Install" (local install) and "Download, Install" (internet install). The expected behavior would be as the --help output describes. Cheers! ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

The upstream fzf project switched to Go, which doesn't have a Cygwin compiler, so bringing it up-to-date is not an easy project. In particular, while I expect the core fzf function is absolutely fine, it's not safe to assume that anything in particular in the upstream documentation matches the behaviour of the fzf version available through Cygwin. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread

I gather that gccgo has not been ported to cygwin, and that there is some problem doing so? I did notice remarks about using small stacks for goroutines requires the Gold linker. It's more a point of curiosity, but perhaps someone could expand a bit on the details :-) ... Regards - Eliot Moss ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 13+ messages in thread
