cygwin.com
unxutils.sf.net

haha! Cygwin owns. I edited my cygwin dll and now I have all of my native Linux commands in windows XP... if only I could get apt to work :D
Yes, many commands have been ported to windows.
Unfortunately without a useful shell, many commands are useless as they're only good in conjunction with pipes, backticks or other shell functions
Maybe the port of bash works?

For a commercial product checkout the mks toolkit. It has a compleet Kornshell.

Cygwin has decent ports of ash (bourne shell), bash (bourne again SHell), pdksh (public domain Korn shell), tcsh (tenex c shell), zsh (z-shell).Quote:

i used to like using cygwin and rest of the ports, but ever since i got my vmware, i don't have to worry about all those things, but since there any many people not familiar with nix CLI, i thought it was a neat tool for people to practive on windows environment.
