Is there some twisted definition by which you can argue Windows is UNIX? Just to intensify the violence.
GNU/Unix/NT, as Iβve taken to calling it
Or GUN for short.
Back in the 90s, Windows NT had a POSIX compatibility layer that you could enable (it wasn't enabled by default).
There's also the WSL, which is pretty unix-y.
I think WSL1 was derived from the POSIX NT personality layer.
Probably. macOS is only Unix by certification because Apple pays a lot of money for that privilege.
