What programs do the Windows devs use as a terminal? When I'm using my windows box I use Console 2 - which is great. But still doesn't compare to Mac OS X or Linux terminals.
Of course using a Linux VM or VNCing into one is the easy solution but it's heavy weight in comparison to having a great terminal app :)
- heresy 15y agoThere is PowerShell (which I use) but if you thought cmd.exe was slow, its got nothing on PowerShell, which takes slow text rendering to a new level. On a Core i7 clocked at 3.5Ghz with SSD :) Getting home to work on a Linux terminal or Terminal.app is like heaven.
- nathanb 15y agoPuTTY seems to be the most common. [edit] Oh, wait, I guess you mean for a local terminal? I'm far too ignorant about Windows to know why a Windows user would even want a local terminal. All the Windows users I polled just log into Linux machines and do their work there.
