Goddammit Unix folks

I'm so tired of Unix tards thinking they're the only ones who have command line interface utilities. If you are a Unix tard, please check the following URLs out before posting shit about Win32 (that's Windows, yeah; ReactOS too):

Native - free software:
http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages.html
http://www.mingw.org/msys.shtml
http://www.mingw.org

Native - commercial software:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/sfu/

Compatibility layer - free software:
http://www.cygwin.com/

That's it; I've been using coreutils and others under Win32 for years and I'm piss tired of telling tards Windows is not just Explorer.exe , so kindly download this and shut the fuck up.

Oh, wait, and before you come bitching about the shell, these sites include varios ports of Bash, zsh, csh, sh, and others, so shut the fuck up. There are also Windows-native alternative shells like 4NT.

Check Sourceforge for Console, which is something similar to Konsole for Windows if you don't like the plain console windows. Check past posts on this board for a way to use other fonts in the plain console.

Don't bitch about scripting because you have Perl, Python, Ruby, PHP, Lua, various JavaScript engines, VBScript, and everything else. For compilers, you have all you have under Unix as well as other Windows-only compilers, and it's much easier to set them up and have multiple C compilers running in your Windows because it's not based on that piss retarded filesystem hierarchy standard faggotry. Yeah, QT, wxWindows, GTK, and everything is there too, and I should say GTK seems to perform better than it does over X, lol. Quit bitching.

You also have other free software like Apache, MySQL, PostgreSQL, OpenSSH, and pretty much everything that comes with your Lunix, quit bitching.

So please, quit bitching for fuck's sake. I can have a working, efficient Windows 2000 desktop with everything you have plus all the Win32/64 software (still far more than Linux has) at once in half the time you compile all this shit. Just kill Explorer.exe and start learning Windows internals and collecting good shit like you did on Unix you fucks.

Forgot to say, get everything from SysInternals too. Wish I had many of these tools on Lunix.

Don't fucking forget all the standard Unix tools. Sure, you might have bash/zsh/csh/whateversh, but can you do this...

while true; do envstat -r|awk -F: '{print $2}'|awk '{print $1}'|fmt 100 102 >>volts2; echo -n '.'; sleep 2; done

for i in `itoa 01 14`; do echo $i;tail -1800 volts2|sed -e 's/ /  /g'|cut -f $i >v; rm -f volts.png ; ./voltchart.py <v; mv volts.png graph.$i.png; done; xv graph.*png

OH NOES MY TINY WINDOWS BRAINE CANNOT COMPREH---OH SHI---*SKULL EXPLODES*

Commercial software to do what might be one with a one-liner unix command line? lol.

GNU Tools on top of Windows NT operating system..

Don't be a coward ---go the whole way and use a GPL operating system, or don't at all.

I have these tools too v_v. That's what I've been fucking telling in the rest of my post.

>>4
I don't have to. I want to run both all the Unix software and all the Win32 software, and I can because I'm not an idiotic fanatic.

I don't have to.
If you understood what the GPL is and you wanted to support free software, then you would.
And: If you can use all Linux programs on Windows, why not use the Windows-programs on Linux? Personally, I like Linux better and if I didn't have so many Windows games, I'd have switched completely long ago.

the dos based cmd.exe SUCKS.  Read about the "command extensions" that make the pathetic excuse of a shell this program calls itself even more pathetic.

cygwin or gtfo

who are you talking to?

It's not DOS-based, and you don't have to use it. You can use another shell (it doesn't require to run under CMD.EXE or anything before you ask). Bash is an option, although it's too made of hack and fail. You have Bash for Cygwin, but you don't have to use it either if you don't want, as there are native ports of it.

if you don't like CMD use command

lol

command fails even more

is there apt-get for windows?

Name: Anonymous 2006-05-10 18:24

please, quit bitching for fuck's sake. I can apt-get a working, efficient debian desktop with everything you have plus all the Win32 software (running in emulators) at once in half the time it takes you to download and install all this shit. Just kill windows and start learning unix internals and collecting good shit like you did on windows you fucks.

Uh, what?

>>12
No, there's Google. Here is it in five easy step.
1. Google stuff
2. Download
3. Either run installer or just unpack anywhere and run (depending on software; the later are better).
No dependencies. No compiling shit. No stupid problems. No FHS.

>>13
running in emulators
Lol, you must think "Win32 software" equates "calc.exe".

I'll create a thread where I explain why I like Win32 better, or rather, why I can't like Linux better than Win32 even though I'd love to.

Oops, looks like "five easy step" got shorter than expected. Forgot Anonymous can't edit posts, that was going to be edited into the final number of steps.

I hate using bash in windows. Every time I type a command there's a noticable delay while it hunts down what to execute. At least with cmd.exe, simple commands, like directory listing, are built in.

Leave the unix shells in unix, that's what they're good at.

Also, I'd like to point out that sh scripting is the programming atrocity of the century. Use a real scripting language, for fuck's sake.

I agree that all shells sucked so far. I recommend writing scripts using Perl or PHP-CLI, which are decent (for system scripts), shell-independent, more commonly found in all OSes, far more powerful and faster.

GTFO Niggersoft fanboy

I hate niggersoft. I'm already wet with ReactOS, I hope it's usable ASAP so I can ditch niggersoft and move onto an open sauce, and more importantly not niggersoft, Windows NT-compatible OS. I just don't like Unix much for a number of reasons.
