Quick question about Linux Subsystem for Windows

[jcklpe]

About a year ago I partitioned out my hdd so that I could do a Ubuntu install. This was after fruitlessly trying to get neural-style to work on my windows machine under cygwin.

Since then there's been some advances in the linux subsystem. Now it's not just Linux, you can actually pick a specific Linux distro OS, Ubuntu being one of them. It seems much more full featured from what I can tell.

I got a new SSD and had to reformat my drive and since I wasn't actively doing research with neural style I didn't bother preserving my Ubuntu installation.

I am fixing to start a new research project with neural style and some other projects, and I wanted to see if the Linux Subsystem for Windows was now working or compatible with neural-style etc?

EDIT:

Also here's a link to the previous discussion I opened about the Linux Subsystem last year: #356

I also asked at the WSL github page and received a good answer:

Looks like the answer is no.
