TheGnuWin32 project provides nativeports in the form of executable computer programs, patches, andsource code for variousGNU andopen source tools and software, much of it modified to run on the32-bitWindows platform. The ports included in the GnuWin32 packages are:
Most programs have dependencies (typicallyDLLs), so that the executable files cannot simply be run in Windows unless files they depend upon are available. An alternative set of ported programs isUnxUtils; these are usually older versions, but depend only on theMicrosoftC-runtimemsvcrt.dll.
There is a package maintenance utility, GetGnuWin32, to download and install or update current versions of all GnuWin32 packages.[1]
