I agree conhost is terrible - but they have finally made some improvements in Windows 10 [1]:
- Drag-to-resize
- Automatic text reflowing on resize
- Ctrl + X/C/V support for cut/copy/paste
- Selection that does line-wrapping
- Transparency
- A full-screen mode

- homulilly 11y agoCtrl+Key shortcuts aren't going to work in bash (at least not without breaking other important stuff) so I'm hoping they decide to make quickedit mode more usable someday. Unfortunately I still think this is going to be kind of a shitshow as long as they keep the black box nature of conhost. The terminal apps OSX and most linux distros ship with are fairly bare-bones too and I doubt reprogrammable 256-color mode is on microsoft's roadmap.
