wget. It actually is very useful.

 

[Savij]

root# rm -R /

 

find - nothing like it in the Windows CLI
wget
less
vi/vim
ps/kill

All of them are available under cygwin or as ports, but none quite feel as good as under *nix

 

[Superwormy]

A decent shell... bash, tcsh, etc.

wget
grep
more

You can get ports of both for windows.

Everything I'd like to see in Windows I have for Windows. Those that don't exist I just wrote myself, but Cygwin carries most of what I need.

Something similar to ps and kill exist on windows. They are caled tasklist.exe and taskkill.exe.
