Setting up a great console on Windows

The default console on Windows has many limitations!

  • No tabs, no split screen support
  • File and folder autocomplete doesn't stop when an ambiguity is reached
  • It doesn't append slashes when completing folder names which makes writing paths unnecessarily cumbersome

Solution: ConsoleZ + Clink

ConsoleZ adds tabs and split screen (there are even keyboard shortcuts for those).
Clink replaces the autocomplete, adds the ability to go up one folder with Ctrl+Alt+U and much more.

To use Clink with ConsoleZ, go to the settings (Ctrl+S) et configure Shell as follows: cmd.exe /k "C:\path\to\clink\clink_x64.exe inject".

Le terminal de base de Windows a de nombreuses limitations !

  • Pas d'onglets, pas d'écrans splittés
  • L'auto-complétion de fichiers / dossiers ne s'arrête pas sur les ambiguités
  • Elle ne met pas de slashs à la fin des dossiers ce qui rend l'écriture des chemins plus compliquée que nécessaire

La solution : ConsoleZ + Clink

ConsoleZ nous apporte onglets et écrans splittés (il y a même des raccourcis clavier).
Clink remplace l'auto-complétion, ajoute la possibilité de remonter d'un dossier avec Ctrl+Alt+U et bien plus.

Pour utiliser Clink dans ConsoleZ, rendez-vous dans les options (Ctrl+S) et configurez Shell comme suit : cmd.exe /k "C:\chemin\vers\clink\clink_x64.exe inject".
