Do you think a Python program is a native Windows application? Who cares... Mercurial binary build distributes hg as .exe (made by py2exe or some other converter). The net point is that when I type 'hg' in windows console, I get running mercurial. When I type 'git-pull' I get error. > > That's double edged sword.

At the moment I am using more or less frequently: Debian Linux, Tru64 Unix, OpenVMS, Windows XP. Python works well on all of those. Shell scripts work on the first one and partially on the second one.
