Hi,

 at home I am using Vim on Linux.
 at work I am using Vim on Windows.
 I am a Unixxer...

 At work I am not allowed all that nice gimmicks like
 grep, find, sed etc. which were ported to windows also
 due to security reasons.

 I would like to get back some of that functionality
 mainly of text related Unix tools via vim.

 First step into that direction is the answer to
 the question, whether it would be possible to
 apply a certain "command" (here, I mean with
 "command" anything which does something with
 text) to a bunch of files of a certain
 pattern in a directory from within vim.

 Unfortunately I have that queston but the
 answer is missing ... ;o)

You can try Cygwin or MSYS with MinGW.
You can fetch the detail information about them from google, and make a decision.
