Dot-ish File(s) for Windows
Despite Windows not having true "."-files, there is a way to enhance your command line with some extra sugar.
Enter DOSKEY.
Just make a shortcut to cmd.exe with an argument that pulls in a .cmd (can't be a batch file) file with a bunch of DOSKEY commands:
Ex. C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /K C:\mystuff\doskeys.cmd
Each DOSKEY command acts as a macro/alias. This file also pulls in a separate file (doskeys-priv.cmd) with variables set to private directories that don't need to be tracked and don't need to be public ;P
Note: a lot of commands in here, like curl and choco, are assumed to be installed and in your PATH already, so this won't work out-of-the-box.
