I just discovered that you can easily get an X11 server up and running on Windows 10 and usable from WSL 1 (which I'm stuck on, for reasons). And you can run #rebl on WSL1 and see the UI on Windows via the VcXsrv (free open source) X server, and run a socket REPL, and connect to that from Windows (I'm using Atom/Chlorine, which knows how to translate from Windows filesystem paths to WSL-`/mnt/<drive>` paths so load-file etc works transparently).

@seancorfield They backported WSL2 to older versions of Windows just this week

I wonder if that means losing your WSL1 files and having to reinstall everything?

I don’t think so

In WSL2 you can even have multiple instances of the same distribution
borkdude 2020-08-22T06:49:31.006700Z
And you can still run WSL 1 instances alongside of it

You can see them with wsl —list

Also you can export and import instances as backups
