Are there cygwin man pages or package descriptions somewhere?
I did a search on "getclip site:cygwin.com" and didn't see anything
that looked like a description.

ok... searched for 'cygwin getclip' and found
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1322594/cygwin-command-to-copy-to-windows-clipboard
  The advantage of getclip/putclip over /dev/clipboard is that the
former have options to convert between unix and dos line endings.

so I do need to take a look at getclip :)
