I love Cmder, it's superior to cmd.exe in all possible ways, but from time to time it just stops working. Now I understand better why.

- ygra 8y agocmd is the shell, Cmder (which is just a wrapper around ConEmu) is the console/terminal. Both have little to do with each other, apart from that one needs the other to show a window.
- EnderMB 8y agoI haven't done any Windows dev since last year, but I've often wondered why more .NET devs don't use Cmder. I've always been a fan of a full-screen console with split panes (tmux style), and other developers have looked at me like I'm some sort of wizard, despite using fairly basic tech. Sure, it takes a little while to get used to Powershell, but once you get over the hump it's really useful knowledge to have, especially if you have anything to do with devops or deployments.
- bitcrazed 8y agoG'ah - PLEASE read the posts about which you're commenting - Cmder is a terminal/Console, not a shell. Cmd.exe is a (headless) command-line shell. A shell accepts input from a terminal/Console and emits text to its connected terminal/Console to be displayed back to the user. All this is covered in some detail in the posts thus far.
- dvfjsdhgfv 8y agoThat's quite clear, I have no idea why people assume I confuse the two. I just said the article helped me to understand why Cmder has certain problems.
