With latest Window Insider preview it's possible to run Linux command from cmd, Windows commands from bash and even use input-output redirects! https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/wsl/2016/10/19/windows-and-ubuntu-interoperability/ Seems that WSL also automatically translate \r\n<->\n.
There still no (official) way to run GUI with WSL. Is Cygwin still better for something? I understand that WSL and Cygwin are completely different approaches, but from user perspective both are kind of sets of GNU/Linux commands and both are using some intermediate layer (cygwin1.dll or LXSS). -- Best Wishes, Evgeny Grin -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
