The closest to native I could find, would be SUA subsystem on Win7 Ultimate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Services_for_UNIX ******* Some people do not like to reference GUNWIN32 packages, which work perfectly well for personal usage, but may not be suitable for various distribution purposes. http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/coreutils.htm Those are what I would normally use for home projects. ******* Win10 has sometime similar, in offering a "bash shell", which would have "tail". Again, virtually anyone I mention that to, pans it, and the product positioning is a problem. Nobody wants to touch it because of its oddball position in the ecosystems. Paul |
