Windows: Add preliminary WSL support for npm and npx #253
Conversation
This commit would make it possible to run `npm` installed on Windows within Windows Subsystem for Linux. It is required, however, that the end of line characters of `npm` and `npx` be `\n` for the fix to take effect.

Some minor nits, but otherwise no objection to this.
I think it's fine to put them in this PR, if you wanna add a commit for that. |
But how to? |
Also having opened Windows files in WSL without terminating the WSL process seems to write lock the files on the host machine, which might limit the use of this feature. But it might be of some use after all, say running a development server using the Windows executable within WSL. |
