Coincidentally I've spent the past week re-learing how to develop on windows. I wanted to avoid cygwin if possible, but the experience has been painful. I had some hope for Chocalatey, and it seemed encouraging that MS had ported OpenSSH over, but my first ssh to a Byobu session on Ubuntu was disastrous... I'm sure there is some TERM parameter I can fiddle, but I don't know what or where in 5 minutes of searching. I needed "grep", so I tried "choco search grep", and there are a dozen choices for grep-like tools.... with GUIs, written in Perl,... oh christ.
