I installed CygWin...and for some reason, no text editors are available to me. No vi, no pico. Did I miss something? I want to edit my environment variables, and set my directory to use a specific folder, rather than the "home/user/" that it's set to by default.
I'd also like to install XWindows, but I have no idea how to do that either...I've got all the necessary files, but I'm not sure how to extract the tarballs...could it be any more obvious that I'm a newbie?

NAME
cupsd - common unix printing system daemon
SYNOPSIS
cupsd [ -c config-file ] [ -f ] [ -F ]
DESCRIPTION
cupsd is the scheduler for the Common UNIX Printing System. It implements a printing system based upon the Internet Printing Protocol, ver-
sion 1.1. If no options are specified on the command-line then the default configuration file (usually /etc/cups/cupsd.conf) will be used.
The -f option forces cupsd to run in the foreground; the default is to run in the background as a "daemon".
The -F option forces cupsd to run in the foreground but detaches the process from the controlling terminal and current directory. This is
useful for running cupsd from init.
COMPATIBILITY
cupsd implements all of the required IPP/1.1 attributes and operations. It also implements several CUPS-specific administation operations.
