Hi ,

I have installed cygwin for my windows XP from http://cygwin.com/. The
installation went fine without any errors. But now when i open a
session by running cygwin.bat I get the minimalistic shell. I dont
have VI editor.Bash says command not found for 'vi' or 'vim' . Do i
have to install new packages for VI ? One more thing, do i need to
install PERL module separetely ?




You'll need to install vim and perl. You'll find vim in the editors category and perl in the interpreters category using the cygwin setup program.
