OK, I have apache2triade running on my XP, and I thought I'd be clever and
install cygwin in the apache2triad directory. (A smaller, retarded version
of cygwin was originally installed there with apache2triad's setup, but I
wanted more functionality and I didn't see why I should have cygwin
installed in two different locations. Besides, I had plenty of room.)

Now I have a huge graphics project and I'm thinking of uninstalling cygwin,
but I don't have a list of all the files installed and I can't simply
uninstall apache2triad/bin without losing all my MySQL and webpage
development.

So, is there a way to get a list of all the files to remove? Has anyone
written a shell script that wipes out cygwin files? Is there an install log
hidden somewhere with a list of files installed?

I'm somewhat new to cygwin (I've been around for a while, but I'm not a
regular user.

Thanks,

Mike Burke
