You didn't use the available resources to answer your questions.
cygwin.com has lots of documentation (FAQ, User's Guide, email
archives) and lots of useful pages (like <cygwin.com/packages>,
which will answer your questions here).  Also don't forget to
consult documentation under /usr/doc and /usr/doc/Cygwin locally.
I think you'll find these resources answer allot of your "newbie"
questions.
