Forums - PC Discussion - Microsoft is adding the Linux command line to Windows 10

Yes! Yes! Yes! It's the next best thing to Linux getting full game (and driver) support allowing me to ditch Windows for good.

This is something i was thinking also is, wont this work both ways?.

 

Not yet..and i would not Expect the other way anytine soon if Ever.

 

There is no "Windows on Ubuntu" its Ubuntu on Windows. This was done to allow developers to use it inside windows while still running Windows.. Its like the AndroidOS player for Windows 10 only this is not a virtual machine mode..its running Native inside Within Windows 10.



I AM BOLO

100% lover "nothing else matter's" after that...

Proud psOne/2/3/p owner.  I survived Aplcalyps3 and all I got was this lousy Signature.

Sick. What's the default compiler?



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

Bash on Windows? Awesome! Oh, it requires Windows 10? Meh. Or maybe it'll be great if a practical need to switch over to Windows 10 arises one day.

In what sense? On the command line, you choose the compiler every time you use it. Sounds like it's going to ship with gcc though, but I bet you Microsoft will also integrate its own compiler in there somehow.

I was asking what compiler it would ship with, which you answered. I use g++ sometimes, but mostly clang++, but I'm sure gcc will be just fine.

Ah, I see. I'm not really that familiar with Linux to be sure, but I believe a lot of Linux distributions include gcc out of the box. I think Ubuntu does, which is what should count here. And considering I read somewhere it'll ship with apt-get though, you should be able to install your compiler of choice quite easily - depending on how exactly apt-get works on Windows, of course.
