ConsoleZ is a Windows console window enhancement.
ConsoleZ is NOT a shell. Therefore, it does not implement shell features like command-line completion, syntax coloring, command history, etc.
ConsoleZ is simply a nice-looking front end for a shell of your choice (cmd.exe, 4NT, bash, etc.) Other command-line utilities can also be used as 'shells' by Console.

This is a modified version of Console 2 for a better experience under Windows Vista/7/8 and a better visual rendering.
