I fear you misunderstand the terminology.  In Microsoft's
"bash shell" is just a text shell, not an environment for
GUI programs.  WSLg is not part of the shell.

Thanks.  I wish, however, posing direct links to images were
part of the netiquette.  This link opens not an image, but a
rather cluttered website /with/ an image.  There are image
free anonymous image hostings supporting direct links, e.g.
<catbox.moe>.

Too much virualisation to my taste, and too little real
thing.  Beware the legions of lobotomized Unices:
