If the user has a command's result to monitor, the watch command can be used. There is a GNU Emacs mode that emulates the functionality of tail -f, called auto-revert-tail-mode.
That is, Windows NT did not provide a POSIX shell nor any Unix commands out of the box, except for pax. The NT POSIX subsystem also did not provide any of the POSIX extensions that postdated the creation of Windows NT 3.1, such as those for POSIX Threads or POSIX IPC.
Windows's application compatibility layers to attempt to run poorly written applications or those written for earlier versions of the platform. [1] Lina, which runs some Linux binaries on Windows, Mac OS X and Unix-like systems with native look and feel. KernelEX, which runs some Windows 2000/XP programs on Windows 98/Me.
Cygwin (/ ˈ s ɪ ɡ w ɪ n / SIG-win) [3] is a free and open-source Unix-like environment and command-line interface (CLI) for Microsoft Windows. The project also provides a software repository containing open-source packages. Cygwin allows source code for Unix-like operating systems to be compiled and run on Windows. Cygwin provides native ...
This is a list of software that provides an alternative graphical user interface for Microsoft Windows operating systems. The technical term for this interface is a shell. Windows' standard user interface is the Windows shell; Windows 3.0 and Windows 3.1x have a different shell, called Program Manager. The programs in this list do not restyle ...
Using -0 for xargs deals with the problem, but many Unix utilities cannot use NUL as separator (e.g. head, tail, ls, echo, sed, tar-v, wc, which). But often people forget this and assume xargs is also line-oriented, which is not the case (per default xargs separates on newlines and blanks within lines, substrings with blanks must be single- or ...
In addition to the binary application code, the executables may contain headers and tables with relocation and fixup information as well as various kinds of meta data. Among those formats listed, the ones in most common use are PE (on Microsoft Windows), ELF (on Linux and most other versions of Unix), Mach-O (on macOS and iOS) and MZ (on DOS).
UnxUtils is a collection of ports of common GNU Unix-like utilities to native Win32, with executables only depending on the Microsoft C-runtime msvcrt.dll.The collection was last updated externally on April 15, 2003, by Karl M. Syring.
