You don't need a $50,000 subscription to learn sed/awk/grep - these standard UNIX tools are found in just about anything. I'm not sure you even need another operating system. For a gentle start with no installation, you could look into busybox-win32.

Run busybox.exe sh from a cmd prompt, and you're in a Bourne shell which supports all those commands natively, including a basic 'vi' editor to build your scripts in.

The commands in this usually only support the basic arguments, not the fancy GNU ones you might use by accident and realize don't work on AIX.

NAME
img-window - Img, Tk Windows (window) SYNOPSIS
package require Tk package require img::window ?1.3? image create photo ?name? ?options? _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION
The package img::window is a sub-package of Img. It can be loaded as a part of the complete Img support, via package require Img, or on its own, via package require img::window. Like all packages of Img it does not provide new commands, but extends the existing Tk command image. More specifically img::window extends Tk's photo image type. The name of the new format handler is window. This handler does not provide additional configuration options. This handler is special. Instead of reading or writing image data from a file or string it allows the embedding of a Tk widget into the photo image. In other words, it takes a snapshot of the contents of a Tk window. All of the above means that in a call like image create photo ?name? ?options? [1] Image data in window format (option -data) is detected automatically. Image data is considered to be in the window format if the value given to option -data is the name of an existing Tk window. Note that the standard option -file is not supported by this handler. [2] The format name window is recognized by the option -format. SEE ALSO
