I wanted to apologize for *my* cluelessness here. The original poster was looking for source code and knew what source code was. I ass*u*me*d that he didn't.

To answer this question: the source code is downloadable via setup.exe or from the mirror sites. cgf -- Please use the resources at cygwin.com rather than sending personal email.
