Windows Package Manager -- Linux assimilation continues


If you are as confused as I am by the PowerShell commands to manage Windows applications and their dependencies, this preview of "winget" the forthcoming Windows package manager will be a welcome addition to Windows.  I have already replaced my terminal with Windows' new, awesome terminal program in which I run bash on Ubuntu.



Microsoft continues its predatory  "embrace and extend" Linux assimilation, creating promising, tantalizing but not-quite-good-enough proprietary alternatives to basic Linux features and capabilities.
