Hi Guys,

The executable name is suspicious at best. Attempting to search
http://cygwin.com/packages/ results in an error "Invalid regular
expression search string: `<left bracket>.exe`". Quotes, double quotes, and back
ticks do not help during the search.

What is this program supposed to do?

Jeff
