Terminal Wings

If you own a Windows-based computer, you are likely familiar with the native Command Prompt utility and probably considered tweaking some of its elements.

Fortunately, you can turn to specialized software, such as Terminal Wings, that can provide you with an alternative to Windows' built-in console component.

This program does not require you to install it on your PC, since it is portable. Unpacking the archive it comes in and launching the corresponding executable (according to your system's architecture) grants you full access to its functions.

More so, you do not need to worry about it tampering with your Windows registry entries, nor about the creation of additional files or folders on your computer.

Terminal Wings enables you to customize its interface by specifying your favorite color scheme from the list, adjusting the text and background colors and also choosing a custom background if you want to.

More so, it features multiple profile support, so you can create several ones and switch between them, according to your needs. When you create a profile, you can select your default theme settings and specify the default directory the application directs you to once you start it.

This tool actually replicates Windows' native Command Prompt utility. You do not need to spend time learning new commands, since all of its functions yield the same feedback.

However, you can work with multiple instances of the application by clicking the plus-shaped button on the main window, which enables you to create a new tab. Switching between tabs can be easily achieved by clicking on your desired selection.

You can decide how many console instances the application launches on startup, if you want to. The application also enables you to minimize its window to tray, so that you can resume your work later without having to run the executable again.

Nonetheless, you need to disable the “Multiple Instances” feature before toggling the “Minimize to tray” one.

As a conclusion, Terminal Wings is a lightweight alternative to Windows' Command Prompt utility that provides you with customization capabilities and features multiple profile support. Adjusting its settings can be easily accomplished easily by using the dedicated configuration window.
