Brief description from the GNU Win II site-

Cygwin is a UNIX environment, developed by Red Hat, for Windows. It
consists of two parts:

    * A DLL (cygwin1.dll) which acts as a UNIX emulation layer providing
substantial UNIX API functionality.
    * A collection of tools, ported from UNIX, which provide UNIX/Linux
look and feel.

The complete program list is here:
