If you want to do fast interactive Erlang command line stuff, go ahead and use werl. If you want to have an environment very similar to the Linux shell, go ahead and install cygwin. From the cygwin command line everything is very similar to the Linux shell, including running commands like erl. So I suggest you invest some time learning Cygwin.

I worked with Erlang on Windows for a long time and cygwin made everything feel like Linux. One feature I did miss on Windows was crontab. It is sometimes messy to schedule stuff on a Windows server, when you are used to crontab on Linux, but now it looks like there are nice crontab support in Cygwin.
