<p>With the Linux subsystem Windows behaves like Linux and one can add instructions along this lines:</p>
<div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span>For Windows 10 please install the Ubuntu Linux subsystem, then follow the
instructions for a Ubuntu system. <span class="nt"><a</span>
<span class="na">href=</span><span class="s">"https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10"</span><span class="nt">></span>These<span class="nt"></a></span>
are Microsoft's official instructions on how to do so,
<span class="nt"><a</span> <span class="na">href=</span><span class="s">"https://www.howtogeek.com/249966/how-to-install-and-use-the-linux-bash-shell-on-windows-10/"</span><span class="nt">></span>these<span class="nt"></a></span>
are less official but slightly easier to read instructions to do the same. You
may also want to install native ssh client like
<span class="nt"><a</span> <span class="na">href=</span><span class="s">"https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/"</span><span class="nt">></span>Putty<span class="nt"></a></span> and an
X11 server like <span class="nt"><a</span> <span class="na">href=</span><span class="s">"https://sourceforge.net/projects/vcxsrv/"</span><span class="nt">></span>VcXsrv<span class="nt"></a></span>,
<span class="nt"><a</span> <span class="na">href=</span><span class="s">"https://sourceforge.net/projects/xming/"</span><span class="nt">></span>XMing<span class="nt"></a></span> or an all-in-one
solution for X11 server and ssh client like
<span class="nt"><a</span> <span class="na">href=</span><span class="s">"https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/"</span><span class="nt">></span>MobaXterm<span class="nt"></a></span>.
