February 21, 2018 - Reading time: ~1 minute

JTerm is an attempt to mimic Linux/Unix commands using 100% Java. Thus it works on Windows. This project is its infancy, but it is already very useful. For some, it may also look also more attractive than using Cygwin on Windows. First thing to notice - it is only 3M in size, a tiny program compared to the default Cygwin installation. Secondly, it has nice look and feel thanks to Nimbus L&F. In combination with JPort portable Java desktop, it may lead to interesting alternative to Cygwin.
