I started with 'notes' ('notesfiles', not Lotus Notes) on Unix/UNIX
(HP-UX), so tin was the logical next step. Anyway, why would I want to
use a GUI+'mouse' for a pure text medium? No need to go forwards and
backwards between keyboard and mouse. But that's just my choice/
preference.
As to Cygwin, for my personal use, Windows programs and all GNU tools
is the best combination, ever since early 2003. WSL came way too late
for me considering to switch to it.

Indeed. I only updated to 24H2 after some months passed and most of
the dust had settled. Update went fine and the power efficiency
enhancements indeed seem to make my laptop's battery to last longer.
Who would have thought that! :-)
