Where did "tput" go in 1.7?

[Paul McFerrin-2]

I cant find tput in setup.ini.  In the older version of setup.ini I
sorta found "clear" but not in the newer version.  It was marked as
'obsolete'.  Is there a separate repository of 'antiques' :+(

Go here:
http://cygwin.com/packages/

Type this:
tput.exe

See this:
        ncurses/ncurses-5.5-2 Utilities for terminal handling
        ncurses/ncurses-5.5-3 Utilities for terminal handling
        ncurses/ncurses-5.7-4 Utilities for terminal handling

Type this:
clear.exe

See this:
        clear/clear-1.0-1 removed package; install ncurses instead
        ncurses/ncurses-5.5-2 Utilities for terminal handling
        ncurses/ncurses-5.5-3 Utilities for terminal handling
        ncurses/ncurses-5.7-4 Utilities for terminal handling

Now I've taught you to fish [1].
