lemasquegrisAnyone ever use Console
for Windows? I use a lot of CLI tools with outputs I have to copy/paste in other
programs, and I got sick of cmd's multi-stepped way of copying or pasting.
Console is a stand-alone program, it "looks" nicer, you can tab out file or
directory names, and use the mouse to copy and paste. It also has a tab feature
in case you need a few windows open.
Admittedly, I use Cygwin when I can, so Console seems to complete the
"unix-lite" feature set of working in Cyg environment.
Anyone ever use any other cmd.exe alternatives they like, or find less-painful?
