Why not use gvim on Windows? That’s my “IDE” on Windows. Though with modern versions of Windows, trying to run vim in the Command Prompt isn’t a complete disaster like it was in the past.

“IDE” in quotes because I consider vim a text editor, and I don’t try to make it an IDE with a bunch of plugins.

I managed to get this: How to Fire a Gun.

So it’s at least plausible.
