I can't find a guide to install on Windows.

If installation on Windows is not possible, are there analogues for Windows?

The rlwrap README mentions:
Windows in itself is not sufficiently Unix-like to be on that list, but
cygwin
(GPL), and, more recently WSL (free as in beer), provide a compatibility layer that allows you to installrlwrap
(there are pre-packaged versions if you don't want to build from source) on a Windows machine.That said, unlike the ususal Linux terminal emulators, the Windows console appears to have a history and line-editing mechanism built in that makes
rlwrap
a bit less necessary under Windows than on a Unix-like machine.Keep in mind that
rlwrap
cannot wrap just any windows console app, but in general only unix-like programs, so you'll needcygwin
or WSL anyway to have any use for it.
