i agree, windows is not unix (it never was) and the following might not be
helpful, but
Matlab provides (on any OS) a very small set of shell-like commands (cd,
dir, ls,mkdir, rmdir, delete, movefile, copyfile).
And providing something like this at a julia REPL should be considered user
friendly.
Wishing a happy day,
