Hosting multiple command prompts

Have you ever wanted to host more than one command prompt, well the answer is Console.

The current version is 2.0 and supports multiple tabs, transparency and other customizations.

I have got the Visual Studio command prompt, Winfx Command Prompt and PowerShell configured on my new Console.

This is a snippet of the configuration file:

  < tabs >

    < tab title ="VS.NET 2005">

      < console shell ="cmd /k C:\PROGRA~1\MID05A~1\VC\vcvarsall.bat"init_dir="C:\"/>

    </ tab >

    < tab title ="PowerShell">

      < console shell ="C:\Program Files\Windows PowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe"init_dir="C:\"/>

    </ tab >

    < tab title ="WinFX SDK">

      < console shell ="cmd /E:ON /V:ON /T:0E /K C:\PROGRA~1\MI2578~1\Windows\v6.0\Bin\SetEnv.Cmd"init_dir="C:\"/>

    </ tab >

    < tab title ="cmd">

      < console shell ="cmd.exe"init_dir="C:\"/>

    </ tab >

  </ tabs >
