It is standard POSIX. And POSIX is quite common nowadays. Cygwin, Git, WSL… Name your few.

Fonts support code points, code pairs is a way to represent a code point. And is not relevant to font per se.

It definitely does. [C:\Users\anrdaemon]$ tcc /c which brain brain is an external : C:\Programs\PersonalBrain2\brain.exe [C:\Users\anrdaemon]$ set path | tr ; \n | grep -i brain <nothing>

echo %PATH% | tr ; \n

Ctrl+Y was "cut line" or "erase line" in different editors at the time. I use it as the latter in my editors.

START "title" "X:\path\to\object" Do NOT skip the "title" part. Else START may confuse object to title and the results would be far from desired.

If you recall, same was true for Windows 7 (Ver 6.2).

sed -e 's/\x1b\[[0-9;]*[a-z]//ig;' And sed itself is extremely common these days.

It's actually quite easy to find out, if you have installed it from repo. sed -Ee '/ 1$/s/^([^[:space:]]+) [^[:space:]]+?(\.tar[^[:space:]]+ 1)$/\1 \1-0\2/; t; d;' < /etc/setup/installed.db Configuration could be copied over, no issues.

I suggest starting from What does rebaseall in Cygwin do? for a brief overview and reading Highlights of Cygwin Functionality for in-depth explanation.

I strongly suggest reading something about Cygwin implementation of POSIX fork() specification. I mean, before writing such emotional comments.

It's not an option. rmdir first tries to remove the object, and only if it fails - recurse. And if Cygwin is your daily tool, it's more likely that you use itself over TCC for scripting a task. If I write a batch job, I use either Cygwin or TCC, only mixing both, if a task is either cross-domain...

I think before trying to detect windows terminal it needs to be stated, WHY do you want to do that?

Very, very, VERY bad idea. The moment your background script permanently blocks on some error message you get your system filled with dead sessions to complete denial of service. Use logging instead. TCC has all the facility for that.

Which has a good chance of destroying your installation, since base addresses of the copied binaries could be wildly different.
