No. But since you supposedly can make Microsoft's operating systems
POSIX compliant, it can possibly also be made to work there.

I think the free POSIX support for Microsofts operating systems is
called "mingw", but I don't know for sure. Alternatively you could
install FreeBSD or Linux in some spare space on your disk. Or
experiment with Knoppix (a Linux system running directly off a cd-rom
without needing to install anything on your disk).
I use a book called "Unix in a Nutshell" to look up information about
POSIX, but it is probably not the ideal introductory text on POSIX
(alias Unix alias Linux).
Play well,
Jacob
