Hi all. After wanting true color support in Mosh (to use Brow.sh), I also wanted to integrate it more tightly with Windows. Since I reckon more people will be wanting to accomplish this, here is a guide.

1. Install Linux Subsystem for Windows if you haven't already (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10) (I use Ubuntu)
2. Make sure you can execute bash from a CMD prompt.
3. Go into the bash environment by executing bash ~ in CMD prompt
4. Install Mosh-dev (for up-to-date version) from https://launchpad.net/~keithw/+archive/ubuntu/mosh-dev by doing sudo add-apt-repository ppa:keithw/mosh-dev then sudo apt-get update
5. Create a new mosh.bat file on your Desktop with the following contents

PdfLatex is a tool that converts Latex sources into PDF. This is specifically very important for researchers, as they use it to publish their findings. It could be installed very easily using Linux terminal, though this seems an annoying task on Windows. Installation commands are given below.

• Install the TexLive base

sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-base

• Also install the recommended and extra fonts to avoid running into the error [1], when trying to use pdflatex on latex files with more fonts.
