Hi, I can already use Windows Power Shell with Scoop and Open SSH, thanks to a line of code someone sent me. I pasted it into Windows Power Shell, and then I let it install everything. Now, whenever I need to access my server, I launch Windows Power Shell, type ssh user@hostname and press enter. Will this be any different from what I am doing now? In the past, I used Secure CRT and Putty with Win SCP, but now I find that all I ened is Windows Power Shell and Win SCP. -Ulysses On 12/13/2017 7:32 AM, Linux for blind general discussion wrote: > Hello, Blinux Folks: > > No doubt many of you are aware that the developer tools available on > Microsoft's Windows 10, beginning with last year's so-called Anniversary > Edition of Windows 10, include a reasonably sophisticated bash shell > environment based on Ubuntu.
