I'm not sure we'd turn down a patch that aimed to make things either more OS-agnostic or more OS-inclusive but yeah, we've current made the choice to keep things simple and just choose a single shell framework, the most common one, moreso now that WSL exists, to write in. Frankly, I find it unlikely a Windows user is going to appreciate any command line based tutorial; but we are not going to go and write one for the official documentation that covers using a third-party graphical user interface as the client tool of choice. Those third-parties, or the broader community, are expected to cater to that need if it exists. David J.
