Well, you should be careful with such a generic statement as initial
sentence! Not every Turtle file contains blank nodes and at least I
don't know anything about the data used by the TO.

On the other hand, I totally agree with you that in case of blank nodes
an alternative like RIOT should be used. But to be honest, I don't know
anything about the Windows world - luckily, I have not to work with this
OS, just read that the Windows Power shell now added cURL :D
