Windows "cmd" Replacements [closed]

"ColorConsole is my 'Windows “cmd” replacement' of choice (actually it's just a GUI wrapper around cmd.exe, not a replacement in the strict sense).

Features:

Favorites commands

Export to HTML and RTF

Copy, Paste, Cut, etc.

Change font style and color

Tabbed Interface with multi cmd.exe

Fast folder switch

And of course it is resizeable to your likings :)

ColorConsole is freeware and portable."

"console2 is an open-source console window enhancement.

Note that it's not technically a replacement for cmd.exe as it still uses it in the back to do the real work. Actually it can be configured to use other shells such as bash or powershell."

"It is not cmd you want to replace, it is the console itself. cmd.exe is like /bin/bash - reads commands, prints output. Windows Console is like xterm - displays everything inside a window. These two are independent of each other.

I like ""console""."

"Been using 4NT and Take Command from jpsoftware.com for years and years, that is, when I'm on Windows.

Otherwise, it is ""the one true shell"" - tcsh!"

"I used console 2, powercmd and colorconsole, but neither of them can run most of the external commands, like connecting to another computer using telnet or searching within output by piping to find
and sadly, as far as I know there is no way to fullscreen console applications in 64-bit editions of Windows, even if you disable your graphic card driver."
