... but probably breaks down on Windows 98, and maybe on ME, too, and just 
maybe on XP pre-SP1 with full moon, unless you end the life of a black 
goat before trying that.

Frankly, I'd rather stay away from such hackeries. For now, we can ship 
bash, perl and Tcl/Tk with Git, as well as git-gui, can't we? After all, 
Windows users are used to bloatware. Then, we just hide the command line 
from them!

Ciao,
