Note: Sublime Text users should disable screen rotation hotkeys as they will interfere with multi-cursor and possibly other combos. See https://windowsloop.com/disable-screen-rotation-keyboard-shortcut/ for details.
Does not have complete parity with the Linux edition, but it does work and can be built on and added to as needed. Modify ./windows/kinto.ahk if you want to add more WSL editions or other terminals.
Does not have complete parity with the Linux edition, but it is getting very close now. Only lacks some Sublime Text 3 remaps at this point.
Users can now hotswap between Apple and Windows based keyboards without having to logoff and back on, and Windows is currently the only implementation with a system tray (but this feature is coming to Budgie, XFCE, Mate, Gnome, and lastly KDE).

## Notes about Windows 10
Sharpkeys was used to create the layout/reg files to swap the Ctrl, Win and Alt keys. Sharpkeys was not required however because the reg keys were extracted. Autohotkey is used to manage keyswaps needed for terminal usage. Autohotkey is also used to add additional mac like keybinds for Sublime text and can be used for other apps as well.
Microsoft is working on a new Powertoy Keyboard Manager that could be used with an easier to use GUI interface, but this approach should be fully sufficient for a mac like experience and autohotkeys appears to be more than capable enough to handle complex rebinding of any or most mac like shortcuts.
## Language Support
I'd appreciate any help from people with non-US based keyboards, to help ensure that these keymaps and keyswap methods work in all or most languages.
