Hello!
I have a netrw user using WinXP who wants to use ssh; currently, he
doesn't have such an executable.
I tend to use cygwin, but that's like asking one to build a home instead
of new cabinets for the kitchen.
So, where can he get ssh for WinXP?
I'm likely to put a synopsis of any answers in netrw's help.
Thank you,

For individual Unix-like programs needed for work in a native-Windows
environment, I recommend getting them from the GnuWin32 project on sourceforge
if it has them ( http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/ or something like that; not
100% sure of the URL). Unlike Cygwin, which sets up a Unix-like virtual
machine on top of Windows, GnuWin32 is a rewrite of Unix utilities with
Windows system calls, and its programs works quite well in the cmd.exe "Dos box".
I have also occasionally tested unxutils but not with as much success.
Best regards,
Tony.
