I can wholeheartedly recommend cygwin, a bash shell that runs under WinWhatever and comes with most tools you expect on a UNIX (gcc, gdb, UNIX file utils, etc). At the time of writing, even Perl 5.8.0 can be installed. Since gcc is part of the deal, a lot of UNIX software can be compiled and run under Windows. Currently it has a nice installer that can be found on the cygwin site and that allows to install software components as needed. It makes live a lot more bearable on a Windows box. Hope this helps, -gjb-
