Drew Furgiuele is too cool for Windows shells:
Microsoft has provided a native Linux experience for Windows, called the Windows Subsystem for Linux, or WSL. If you haven’t heard of this feature yet, here’s the short version of what this means:
– “Install” a Linux distribution of you choice into your Windows 10 environment, which
– Enables you to run common Linux command line tools, like grep and sed, which is something your Linux using friends and co-workers have been bragging about since like, forever, and
– Gives you access to other Linux applications and commands, available via your chosen distribution’s package manager, and oh before I forget
– Gives you an honest-to-goodness native SSH shell experience on your machine without the need for a third party applicationSounds cool, right? Well, it is.
It is.
