1.maybe you saw nothing selected for install because the main 
window's view chooser was to "pending" and not "full"?

2, use fzf.  i don't use it (yet?) but it should be something like:

cyginst() { # a little function to install a package from the cli
_pkg=$(cygsearch "$1" | fzf | cut -f1 -d'-' )
/setup-x86_64.exe  ... -P "$_pkg"
}

the cut is to strip off all the versioning choices.  i think fzf can 
even allow you to edit the choice you make to eliminate that.  or you 
you change the cut to a sed and only strip off '-[0-9]*' for apps 
that use a dash in their real name (can't think of one ottomh, but...).

fzf is packaged for cygwin and the github page has more help than I 
cared to read when I found it. :)




Cheers!
