I've been using RCS for many years in an older cygwin running, most
recently, on Windows 10. For some reason, my cygwin installation went
nuts so I downloaded and installed cygwin64. cygwin64 works great but
doesn't have RCS. I've searched the net and all other sources (the
cygwin archives appear to be unsearchable) and have found nothing helpful.
I copied the RCS executables, etc., from my old cygwin directories into
cygwin64, but they don't work. (I used the RCS package file list as a
guide.)
How can I get a working RCS?
Thanks,
Bill

RCS is available for 64-bit Cygwin. Just install it using setup-x86_64.exe.

Rebuild the package from source. 32 and 64 but Cygwin have different binary models.

It turned out to be easier than that. I just re-ran the installer and
added the RCS package. Works fine! I also found "make" easily enough.
But which package contains cpp (the C preprocessor, not the C++ thing).
Thanks,
Bill

Sorry to jump the gun, I found cpp, too.
