Well some-one had to do it. I have Windows 10 and I forced the update to Anniversary Edition. When you choose the Developer option, you can now choose to install their beta linux (Bash) subsytem which is a ubuntu system.
Yup I installed it and it works great for commandline stuff. But with a couple of minor tweaks that can be found online, and the installation of an X windows system, and there's at least 3 free ones, you can run gui Xwindows programs. There are issues with some programs but..##SELECTION_END## Because the subsystem is Ubuntu based, I used the instructions in the wiki, specifically the great script that does all the work for you. And it works flawlessly. And running xastir, it starts up and runs flawlessly! Go figure! So Windows 10 can now be part of 'our' ecosystem. Who'd of thunk it.
