UnxUtils: GNU utilities for Win32
July 26th, 2007
UnxUtils is a port of common GNU utilities to native Windows binaries. I have been using it for a couple of years and I found it very convenient because it contains all of GNU's coreutils, plus several other useful programs that I use often, like: bc, bzip2/gzip/zcat, diff, grep/egrep, find, gawk, less, sed, tar, wget and many more.
At the time of writing the download link seems to be broken, but you can still get a copy from this website. Make sure to check the MD5 sums of the executable files, for integrity's sake.
It seems that the project has not been maintained for several years, thus the programs' versions are a little stale. If you need something more up-to-date you may find what you're looking for in GnuWin32, a project that "provides Win32 ports of tools with a GNU or similar open source license."
