A 'cygwin-doc' package is now available via setup.exe. This
packages contains man pages for the cygwin-specific utilities
and the cygwin functions that have no unix counterparts. 

These man pages were automatically generated; the full documentation 
is still located at:

http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-utils.html

and 

http://cygwin.com/cygwin-api/cygwin-api.html

The only exceptions to this are the intro.1 and intro.3 manpages, which
I wrote by hand with input from the cygwin mailing list subscribers.
A complete list of the included pages is:

usr/man/man1/intro.1
usr/man/man1/cygcheck.1
usr/man/man1/cygpath.1
usr/man/man1/kill.1
usr/man/man1/mkgroup.1
usr/man/man1/mkpasswd.1
usr/man/man1/passwd.1
usr/man/man1/mount.1
usr/man/man1/ps.1
usr/man/man1/umount.1
usr/man/man1/strace.1
usr/man/man1/regtool.1
usr/man/man3/intro.3

usr/man/man3/cygwin_stackdump.3

This is the first release of cygwin-doc.

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link
on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to
your system.  Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick
up 'Cygwin-doc' from the 'Doc' category.  (This will automatically 
select dependencies, such as 'man', if you don't already have them
installed.) You may need to click the "Full" button if it doesn't 
show up.

Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't
allowed due to bandwidth limitations.  This means that you will need
to find a mirror which has this update.

In the US, ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/
is a reliable high bandwidth connection.

In Japan, ftp://ftp.u-aizu.ac.jp/pub/gnu/gnu-win32/ is already
updated.

In DK, http://mirrors.sunsite.dk/cygwin/ is usually up-to-date.

If one of the above doesn't have the latest version of this package
you can either wait for the site to be updated or find another
mirror.

Please  send questions or comments to the Cygwin mailing list at:
cygwin AT sources DOT redhat DOT com .  If you want to subscribe go to:
http://cygwin.com/lists.html I would appreciate if you would use
this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.  This includes
ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general.

If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing
list is the appropriate place.
