Console

Works Fine. I use with with WinZsh+GNUWin32 on a WinXP box where I have to have an extremely old version of cygwin installed (thus preventing me from using a reasonably current version of it and its terminals.) Only issues I've seen after 3+ months, and these ***may not even*** be issues with this Console app: - (WinZsh issue?) Most annoying: binary characters show up on right side of the prompt line. The annoying part is that if I copy an entire command line, these characters trash the resulting paste attempt. - (WinZsh and/or GNUWin32 issue?) *occassionally* hangs maybe once every ~2 days with heavy usage. I don't have a good scenario definition ID'd, but it seems to occur usually when I'm trying to do something quickly and always when I submit a command before any command output returns. (To be honest, probably *not* a GNUWin32 issue, as I never saw this while using GNUWin32 commands in a WinXP CMD shell.) I offer one Enhancement Proposal: handle ANSI sequences that affect text color/bold/underline/etc., such as output from bash and z-shell (e.g. with output such as that from "grep --color==always ...") Console does handle ANSI output from WinXP's CMD shell, such as from the "tree" and "color" commands.

I love this program! KDE's Konsole was my "killer app" for Linux, and I always missed it when forced to Windows. But this is a fantastic replacement, I take it wherever I go (I'm freelance) complete with my config file.

Extremely useful!
