You received several bounce messages informing you that your message was
off-topic.  You asked a question in email to postmaster and were
informed that your email was off-topic and were told where to send your
requests.

I'll say it again:  Send this to cygwin-xfree.

To answer your question: If you want to install a package run setup.exe.
If you want to find a filename that contains a package use
http://cygwin.com/packages.html, find the package, and install it using
setup.exe.

If you want to learn how to completely understand English, I'd suggest
a local community college.
