Title: cmd.exe can make you cool
Post by: Yoni on October 07, 2005, 07:13 PM
Are you cool?
Are you a geek?
Do you use Windows?

Well, you can be cooler (or geekier): http://yoni.valhallalegends.com/cmd/
Enjoy!

Ick. Why not just use an X Server in Windows and load X Terminal? :P

WHY not start in C:\ since that would be root? :P:

I want a cmd, not a unix-like terminal.
Cygwin and SFU shells are all unix-like.

You could. But most of my stuff is in subdirectories in C:\Misc. You can set it to whatever you want, of course.

Hm, if I used Windows still, I'd definatly use nearly all of that, except maybe the quotes thing.

Good job Yoni!

Why not put the quote files in the windows folder instead of some far away folder?

Indeed, Windows was designed for idiots and not geeks...yet geeks still use it, strange.
Ironically, you need to be super knowledgable about Windows to fix one and super stupid to screw it up...kinda badly designed if it was designed for idiots and real easy to break.

Once the OS is installed, you shouldn't (have to) put ANYTHING in the Windows folder.
