Rich character attributes support, including italic, doubly underline, overline, strikeout, rapid blinking.Comprehensive character encoding support, including UTF-8 and wide character display.Xterm-compatible terminal emulation, coverage of DEC VT300 series terminal features and more.Luckily, there is MinTTY, a terminal emulator based on code from PuTTY 0.60 by Simon Tatham, that works well on Cygwin, MSYS or Msys2 and WSL. The subsystem has some limitation, like a poor support for fuse (useful for forensic image mounting) but from my point of view, the worst lack is a very limited terminal emulator.

Is a compatibility layer for running Linux binary executables natively on Windows 10, and allows the use of a rather real linux installation, without using a virtual machine. The Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is a great feature introduced in Windows 10.
