This is the case for a few windows commands but many, even the majority don't
use windows console functions, they just read from stdin and writ to stdout
so you can run then via a pipe.

I do this all the time as I have a Plna9 desktop but have a cpu(1) like command
dos(1) which opens a session to a windows box for command line access; I write
embedded code which is crosscompiled using gcc on windows.

I wil describe this more if you like and you can have the code but I'am
on holiday for a week.
