  Running Windows commands and utilities in Interix

    Windows commands can be run in an Interix command shell. To do so,
    however, you must include the correct extension (.com or .exe), or run
    cmd.exe with the proper syntax to run built-in commands (such as cmd.exe /
    c dir to run the dir command).

    To make running Windows commands easier, a set of shell scripts is located
    in /usr/contrib/win32/bin, which is included in your PATH. These scripts
    run the corresponding Windows program, passing any parameters supplied on
    the Interix command line. If a Windows command reads from standard input,
    it can receive input redirected from an Interix command. If a Windows
    command writes to standard output, its output can be redirected to an
    Interix command.

    In addition, scripts are provided to make it easy to run many Windows
    utilities (such as Notepad) that are often started using either a command
    prompt or the Run command.

    If the name of a Windows command or utility is the same as an Interix
    command or utility, the name of the script in /usr/contirb/win32/bin is
    prepended with the letter w. For example, to run the Windows find command
    in an Interix command shell, use wfind on the command line.

    The following table lists the scripts in /usr/contrib/win32/bin and the
    Windows command or utility that it runs. See Windows Help for more
    information about these commands and utilities.

    Some of the commands and utilities listed might not be available in some
    versions of Windows.
