  • Console is great. I have used it for years. The issue I have had lately is that since this distro is compiled for 32 bit. It seems to be unable to run 64 bit applications. I every other aspect I find this application very useful.
  • For the screenshot, i thought this console had syntax colouring, which it doesen't

  • good!
  • Loved this for years, just for making the Windows CLI easier to work with.

  • Well done simple wrapper for various windows shells. Don't let the fact that this project hasn't been updated in a few years deter you - it just means that it is very stable!

  • Please use ConsoleZ as an up-to-date alternative: github.com/cbucher/console (Go figure, SourceForge won't allow URLs in reviews). Console2 hasn't been updated in 2 years. ConsoleZ is actively maintained and is also on Github rather than SourceForge (BIG plus).
  • perfect! Exactly what I was looking for
  • I have been using Console for many years, I am very satisfied.
  • Good project that helps me to save time coding something like this. Some features are good, some aren't
  • Looks good.
  • Big improvement over standard cmd. For those looking for selecting text: use Shift-mouse drag. If you want to use Ctrl-C/V for copy/paste simply change it in settings. By default Ctrl-C/V send appropriate codes to the console window (as they should.)

  • It lets me use copy and paste the way nature intended. Yay!
  • It's a great tool that improves a lot the windows cmd
  • Better than the terminal supplied by Microsoft, but it has far fewer features than any Linux counterpart

  • Great one
  • Excellent program and a must-have for people who are sick of the native command prompt shell!
  • Nice alternative to the native console. Minus 1: default text selection is counter-intuitive (having to hold down Shift). Minus 2: running a shortcut (.lnk file) to a 64-bit program FAILS with the 32-bit executable.
  • The program works great but I have some suggestions. 1. When creating tabs, provide a clearer distinction of the tabs with a bold border, color, etc. 2. Provide right-click options like Close, Close All, Close All but this tab, etc 3. Include option to manually and automatically check for and install updates (released, beta, etc.) 4. Capture Text option 5. Print & Print Preview options 6. On the bottom status bar, show Scroll, Caps, Num, Capture (if capture text is on), etc 7. User friendly text and block selection (from keyboard or mouse) 8. Set to be default Command window 9. For Windows 7, include Jump Lists 10. Search in console

  • Cool project! Very nice.
  • One of the best lightweight tool for running IPython. Just love the speed. A proper installer would be great. None the less, Great Job!
