Bash sure, but why would Microsoft build an X server? They already have remote desktop technology that works fine. The only thing one would possibly need an X server for is to display unix applications on the windows machine. Why would they spend extra effort for something like that?
- grandalf 16y agoit would be very easy to add a simple x server. If windows had a solid gcc, bash, and x server (and case sensitive file system) there would be none of the typical frustration I get when using it to do anything serious.
- loewenskind 16y agoUgh. Visual Studio is a superior development environment to anything you can get on Unix (with the only exception being Smalltalk environments and Slime to an extent), and case sensitive file systems are a mistake that came about from laziness. A file system should be case preserving but case insensitive. Full Stop. Do you know how much money has been lost in the business world because some idiot on a unix box thought differentiating different files with case alone was really cool?
