Does anyone know of anything other than cmd.exe (or command.com!!!) that someone can use on windows 2000 or XP? Basically I think its a piece of crap, especially compared to the unix-based prompts...

I know there is something called cygwin, but that doesn't really replace the prompt, but rather adds functionality to it, which is also useful.

I suppose it mainly just vexes me that there is automatic line wrapping and there seems to be no way to make it not wrap or even fill up the whole screen...

Any help is great. thanks!

This is the same posting as on the WinXP forum, double posted. Follow that thread so you get all the responses, if any.
