What Package Contains the cw (Color Wrapper) Software
I cannot locate cw on the ftp site of a cygwin mirror. I would like to know if it is bundled under some other package name, possibly with other utilities.

What Package Contains the cw (Color Wrapper) Software
Thank you Larry! My problem is I am trying to download it via ftp rather than Cygwin's Setup.exe and I cannot find it on the ftp site. (I am limited by a proxy server from using Cygwin's setup.ext to find it directly). If I wanted to go to an ftp mirror site, like ftp://cygwin.mirrorcatalogs.com/cygwin/ Where can I find it there? I am trying to download it via ftp to my local package directory on my hard drive and then use the Cygwin Setup.exe to install it from there.

My understanding is that if you can get to one of the Cygwin mirrors with your web browser, you can get there with Cygwin's setup program. What error did you get when you tried to use the proxy support in the setup program? -Jeremy -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
Re: What Package Contains the cw (Color Wrapper) Software
I may have mis-spoke. No proxy settings are actually configured in the browser but stringent security filtering is in place. The way the network here is configured, it will not allow it. No error and no list of mirrors comes up. I have already used this alternative ftp method to install another test package on my local repository and it seemed to work ok that way. Can you tell me which directory it would be in out of the file and directory list on the ftp site? Thanks! On 01/27/2012 03:43 PM, lookingupw...@lavabit.com wrote: Oops.

Well, if you followed the link I sent, you'd recognize that there is no such package in the distribution. You can check for any utility you're interested in by searching the available packages: http://cygwin.com/packages/ In the case of cw, you're going to have to look elsewhere or build it yourself. -- Larry _ A: Yes.

I can see how you might interpret in passing the link I sent to the results of the package search as one for the package itself. -- Larry _ A: Yes. Q: Are you sure?
