Yep, it was there even in NT4 (not sure which SP) though it didn't really work that well and could occasionally crash CMD.EXE. (I used to copy the cmd.exe from Win2k beta to my NT4 workstation It has nice features like it expands wildcards and you
can SHIFT-TAB to step backwards through the possible matches when you have been TAB-ing too much. The not so nice feature is that if you edit an existing command line and use tab somewhere in the middle of the string, it will trash all the characters between
the cursor and the end of the string. (something that bash doesn't do). About GUI features: What I really hope is that it will be possible to resize the console window without clicking 123 buttons like now. It's a big plus of xterm and rxvt. Transparency would
also be cool of course Well, going to watch the video.
