Subject: unix shell commands for windows Date: Mon, 2 Feb 2009 23:40:58 -0800 From: Andrei Belov To: (a mailing list) Maybe Microsoft should just write a wrapper for these commands so that rather than get: C:\> pwd The name specified is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. You get: C:\> pwd This is WINDOWS. Repeat, WINDOWS. Not UNIX! Point and click too good for you?
