I like it. "Games" is fine -- didn't somebody or other port FreeCIV to
cygwin about a year ago?
FWIW, I'm planning to add "ddate" to my cygutils package eventually --
it's distributed on Linux systems as part of the "util linux" package
along with the (already cygutils-assimilated) cal and namei programs,
among others. ddate is the "Druel Discordian Date" program --
"Today is Sweetmorn, the 42nd of Bureaucracy, 3161." etc.
