Good on them for making CMD more modern.
But I'm not a fan of the ligatures they've shown in the
video / screenshots. This was discussed on HN recently after this article got posted: https://practicaltypography.com/ligatures-in-programming-fonts-hell-no.html https://practicaltypography.com/ligatures-in-programming-fon...
Luckily, the font seems to just be an option and not something forced on you.
- mixmastamyk 8y agoCMD hasn't really been touched, though the console subsystem has, and now terminal-esq functionality debuts.
- sys_64738 8y agoI noticed DOSKey seems to be default in recent versions of command.com.
- mixmastamyk 8y agoCmd.exe you mean? Believe that functionality has been around for a while.

- chokolad 8y agoThis is about terminal (think xterm, iterm2 etc.), not about shell like cmd or powershell or bash or zsh or whatever.
- Analemma_ 8y agoThe terminal adds support for ligatures, in the sense that the rendering capability is now there, but you can use a shell/editor without them.
