Not sure where it is. But there is a place you can look that might help. Go
to:  http://www.gnu.org/manual/

You'll see a listing of some of the same packages you can install with
cygwin installer. If you follow the link for a package you can then see what
executables are included with that package. e.g. fileutils includes stuff
like cp, mv, rm, and touch. 

I think it would be helpful for this kind of info to be mentioned on the
cygwin page or in the cygwin installer. Maybe even just a link over to the
GNU site.  Before I knew to look at that site, I often wondered what
utilities are included with each package. e.g. where is tail.exe found,
where is cat.exe found, etc.

Subject: Where can I find the CAT utility?


Hello,
I would like to use the cat utility. I downloaded the following 
packages:
ash
autoconf
automake
bash
binutils
cygwin
fileutils
findutils
gawk
grep
inetutils
sh-utils
w32-api
which

but cat seems not to be included there. Where can I find it?

Thanks for your help,
Karsten.
