6898 There are a large number of common (in the sense that "everyone has
6899 these, they really do") Unix utilities that are not provided with
6900 XEmacs. The GNU Project's implementations are available for Windows in
6901 the the Cygwin distribution (@uref{http://www.cygwin.com/}), which also
6902 provides a complete Unix emulation environment (and thus makes ports of
6903 Unix utilities nearly trivial). Another implementation is that from
6904 MinGW (@uref{http://www.mingw.org/msys.shtml}). If you know of others,
6905 please let us know!
