There was a project at one time to implement all the Unix
commands in Python but I think it died off. But then why
not just download Cygwin? Then you get a real Bash shell
and all the other Unix commands native on Windows
(including X if you really want!).
No Unix hacker should ever be without Cygwin when on a
windows box...
