GnuWin32工具以及一系列其他Unix工具都有。

我正在使用GOW（Windows上的GNU），这是Cygwin的一个轻量级版本。你可以在这里从GitHub获取它。

GOW（Windows上的GNU）是Cygwin的轻量级替代品。它使用一个方便的Windows安装程序，可安装大约130个编译为本机win32的有用的开源UNIX应用程序二进制文件。它设计得尽可能小，大约10 MB与Cygwin相反，Cygwin可以运行超过100 MB，这取决于选项。-关于描述（Brent R.Matzelle）

在Windows PowerShell中：

set-alias which where.exe

如果你能找到一个免费的Pascal编译器，你就可以编译它。至少它可以工作，并且显示了必要的算法。

我创建了类似于Ned Batchelder的工具：

在PATH中搜索.dll和.exe文件

虽然我的工具主要用于搜索各种dll版本，但它显示了更多信息（日期、大小、版本），但它不使用PATHEXT（我希望很快更新我的工具）。

我在互联网上找到的Unix Win32端口没有一个是令人满意的，因为它们都有一个或多个缺点：

不支持Windows PATHEXT变量。（它定义了在扫描路径之前隐式添加到每个命令的扩展列表，以及顺序。）（我使用了很多tcl脚本，没有公开可用的工具可以找到它们。）不支持cmd.exe代码页，这会使它们错误地显示带有非ascii字符的路径。（我对此非常敏感，我的名字中有一个ç：-）cmd.exe和PowerShell命令行中不支持不同的搜索规则。（没有公开可用的工具可以在PowerShell窗口中找到.ps1脚本，但在cmd窗口中找不到！）

所以我最终写了我自己的，这正确地支持了以上所有内容。
