Hi,
so the standard cygwin install is to run the setup. This puts some dll's on
your file system and would also I presume update your registry.

I'd like to do be able to run some simple cygwin programs such as grep and
ls without having to run the set up and change my registry.

I am wondering if this is possible.

Thanks.
