Looking for cmd.exe replacement -- any suggestions? Thread last updated on 2004-07-01 14:19:09

I don't like the command shell in Windows, does anyone know any good replacements (I heard there are bash ports for Windows)?

Thanks in advance.

if u like bash - there u go http://www.cygwin.com/
if u just want another frontend use this one http://sf.gds.tuwien.ac.at/c/co/console/Console-1.5b346-Beta.zip

Also, try LSH (www.redf.net).

yeah, console2 just runs over top of cmd, and hides it.

I use Cygwin X because you can resize the window in a vi or telnet session and it works! Get it same place as muhKuh's link.
