That akward moment when you realize that you are not in a linux shell!

True.

Oh, I do this all the time!

@csessh You can access it now in the fast ring, it's great :)

Powershell aliases ls and dir to Get-ChildItems. Who uses cmd anymore?

Powershell still sucks tho

@rubyDom had to use it for some android stuff. :-)

I do this all the time! BTW bash is coming to windows. not Linux with its kernel, file structure and compilers...

looking at a Windows terminal sends me into rage mode. I really hate micro$oft

@csessh I recently bought a $99 Windows tablet. Not as terrible as I thought it would be; decent enough for light web browsing and playing Hearthstone. The biggest limitation is that it only has 2gb of RAM; it would be much better if it had 4 as browsers fill it up fast. I get better performance on it out of Edge than Chrome. Chrome eats most of the memory when you launch it and the rest on the first tab. :/

Dude do this when you start a dos prompt "doskey ls=dir $*"

@daarkfall You mean "sudo doskey ls=dir $*", right ? xD

(Thank you for the tip)

Classic, i do the same every time i am working with an windows machine.

Doing aliases for ls = dir on Windows and dir = ls on OS X as solved that issue for me! ahah

@Onyx1640 wow, a $99 Windows tablet? That's amazing. Imagine in a few years what you will be able to get with Windows for that price! Which tablet did you buy?

have the same problem all the time using windows. check for Cmder, it's pretty nice console emulator. it can ls and many more other things such as vim and so on))

Windows is too bad

@Xevion It's an RCA Cambio 10.2 from Walmart.com

@csessh *bash she'll

And it's already available in the preview builds!

Currently using "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" on Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview, it's excellent. I suggest everyone get it.

It runs as a subsystem to Windows, so /mnt/c/ is the mounted location of your Windows installation. continue navigating to /mnt/c/Users/<youruser>/ to access all of your personal files.
