Yes, but since their not compiled with gnu-win32 gcc, all the nifty features, like the mounted dirs, we enjoy aren't there. I haven't gotten around to trying to compile another shell yet, but I'd imagine it'd be fairly easy to get a simple shell made. Perhaps strip out the signaling and stuff (I could live without hitting Ctrl-C for a while longer, though it is nice to have it back in bash). --- "Oh, what sad times are these when passing ruffians can say 'Ni!' at will to old ladies.
