Suggestion: commandline version of setup.exe or schedulable setup.exe


Love the new Cygwin installer, particularly it capability of updating
portions of an installation that are creeping out of date.  Would 
love it more if I could schedule update to run monthly/weekly/daily 
to be able to make sure that I'm always up to date.  This would be 
comparible to the IE or Netscape Autoupdate feature, 
or the automatic upgrade features found in most virus checking 
software.

If you could build an update program that runs from the commandline,
that would be sufficient.  I could easily run the program via a Windows
scheduler if it had a command line only interface.  It would be even 
friendlier if a scheduler was built into the tool, or if the tool was 
Windows Scheduler-aware.

                                - Jeff
