Unix "cut' and "awk" in Windows XP?

Hi,
How can I execute Unix's ksh equivalent of "cut' and "awk" in Windows XP?
For example, I want to execute ksh commands from Windows command prompt. Is there a place I can download "cut.exe" and "awk.exe" ?
Thanks in advance

Smile Google brought me to this forum

Hi,

Google brought me to this forum. I also checked download.com and noticed there is WinXs but it was for windows 95. There is also UnixDos 5.1. Does anyone have any better recommendations?

I checked out WinXs and, according to its apparent homepage, it works in Windows XP. This is probably your best bet. Otherwise, you could try and find an equivalent in Windows Powershell (free download from Microsoft); I know that Microsoft's object oriented languages have variables that can be embedded in script / program strings so that one can display information like runnning processes and the like.

The Cygwin kit contains a rather full-featured selection of Unix commands for Windows, including a shell and some infrastructure to shield you from the horrors of the underlying excuse for an operating system.
