gow

GoW (GNU on Windows) is a command line toolkit that provides a collection of more than 100 Unix command line utilities that have been compiled for Windows environment. It aims to bring the power and flexibility of Unix tools to Windows users, making it easier for them to work with command line and automate tasks.

GoW includes popular Unix utilities such as grep, sed, awk, find, ls, tar, and many more. These tools can be used from the Windows command prompt or PowerShell, allowing Windows users to run familiar commands and scripts.

One of the advantages of GoW is that it does not require installation or any modifications to the Windows system. It can be easily downloaded and extracted to any directory, and then the included binaries can be executed directly from the command line.

GoW is especially useful for developers, system administrators, and power users who are comfortable with Unix command line tools and want to have the same functionality in the Windows environment. It provides a convenient way to perform various tasks like text searching, file manipulation, and data processing using a familiar set of commands.
