  Bash's powerful command line editing in cmd.exe

If you don't want to learn the powershell commands then clink can enhance the existing cmd shell. It provides a lot of features i was used from bash/zsh: completion, history across sessions, colors, fzf integration and so on. Can be extended with lua.

• Scoop

  A command-line installer for Windows.

  

I prefer scoop over choco. I like the way it installs the software in a scoop directory instead in of using the default program directories. And no admin rights needed.

It’s funny you mention MSYS2. Just yesterday I attempted to use Neovim in it and had an odd issue that I don’t see with the scoop version. I’m curious if anyone else runs into it.
