re: "Cygwin?  The only thing that made Windows tolerable for me.  Ubuntu basn?"

The recent versions of Windows allow running Ubuntu or more other distributions 
of Linux, m/l "natively".  

Look up "Windows Subsystem for Linux" or "wsl.exe" or 
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/

All of the Linux tools are available, from whatever distro you'd like.
