You can install bash on Windows (e.g. as part of Cygwin).
By commenting out the delete_output line near the end and anything that
fails you can even use it to generate a merged ass file, without needing
to have MPlayer working under Cygwin.
Or to do the merged subtitle generation in a Linux VM but then play on
Windows.
