command prompt in windows 10

[OperatorGK]

Win10 isn't now at my ASUS, so someone, please test following things:
* Debug parsing mode: 256+ opening brackets
* (goto) 2>nul trick
* %cmdcmdline% bug
And other strange hacks that I don't remember.

[npocmaka_]

could you send me link with the %cmdline% hack?

I've tested a bunch of hacks/bugs so far, but looks like only escaped EOF is fixed.
Later I'll post here more info about what I've tried.

Other interesting thing is that the Edge browser has no activex/com object assiociated with it and it can be scripted only with selenium.
InternetExplorer.application is still working though , but launches internet explorer which is still here.

I've detected three new environemnt variables:

FPS_BROWSER_USER_PROFILE_STRING
FPS_BROWSER_APP_PROFILE_STRING
WINDOWS_TRACING_LOGFILE
WINDOWS_TRACING_FLAGS


though could not confirm if they will be available with installation from scratch.

full screen (alt+enter - looks really cool with transparent cmd ) is available again , also drag and drop files.

[OperatorGK]

Full screen

YEAH!!! Does it support DOS-like fonts?

Wow, I didn't expect any new developments on cmd, but it looks like ms is aware that batch is still alive and well.

Now if they only fixed that word-wrap bug in notepad that's been around since win3.0...

Ctrl-V to paste. PFFFT (and right click aside).. Use unxutils pclip (that pclip line is a joke by the way.. though it can be a useful tool , and not well known)

Just installed it ,
and this what I've saw at a glance.

telnet has a new command line switch : -f for log file

*[Snip]

My classmate (I am 17) also tried Windows 10, but he says that Telnet is not recognized as command.

The console now supports a subset of vt-100 ANSI escape sequences

I tried it out, and it works on my Win 10 without having to do any configuration.

Does that effectively mean that MS put something back in that we enjoyed in the 1990's?

I have a heap of ansi screens saved from back then...

[dbenham]

Yep

It was a very quiet release. The feature appears to have been added in support of an OpenSSH Server for Windows, as discussed here. The ANSI sequence support runs out of the box for cmd.exe, but not for PowerShell. That same article describes how to enable it for PowerShell.

The ANSI escape sequence support can be disabled via the console options by reverting back to the legacy console (bottom option in the Options tab)

The supported sequences are described in detail at the MicroSoft Dev Center

Great
I'll write an c#\bat hybrid that enables\disables\checks the status of vt-100.May be for someone it will be more convenient than the powershell.

It will be years before my company upgrades to Windows 10. Heck they will probably skip it. Windows 7 works well so I will probably never get a chance to use it at work.
