Ok let me explain this one:
cygwin is a complete (nearly) Posix environment in windows. If install
it
and run it you come to a bash promp where most familar utilitiesare
avilable. If you install X you can use the x server. I use it on my
windows
box to run GNU emacs. (I could use NT Emacs, but the cygwin Emacs works
correctly,for just about everything, whereas those parts that depend on
external utities often do not work right on NTEmacs.)
If you use cygwin's ssh with x tunneling you can get to your desktop of
your
debian system on your windows box.
