This is a good one. I'd like support it.

#7 Active folder in tab titles w/ tab names

clauss — Tue, 22 Oct 2013 21:58:14 -0000

Added a screenshot, using the title %CD%. I'm still trying to figure out a way to script the tab name and keep this kind of functionality. Even make ti dynamic until this is possibly added as a feature.

Keep up the great work on console2!

Active folder in tab titles w/ tab names

Anonymous — Tue, 22 Oct 2013 21:47:42 -0000

Hello, I would like to add this to a feature request.

The ability to have active folder titles within tabs, as well as keep the tab name. For instance, have a tab named cmd which shows the current active working folder and changes dynamically if the user changes working folders within the tab. IE: "CMD: C:\Users\V4DER"

I achieved a similar effect using /k title %CD% within the tabs>shell>command dialog box, but this will not change the title dynamically.

Having this ability would be very nice, as you can see by looking at open tabs. Which current prompts you have open, and in which directory you have them running.

Thanks again for console 2.

#2 Save tabs

Dear All,

In the new release 2.0B148d I have add the possibility to automatically restore session. When this option is active the session are saved when the application is closed and restored when the application is restarted. The session are the tab, their type and their current working directory.

The release should be available within few days.

Best regards,
Vivian.

#2 Save tabs

I second this. I have created three tabs with the different shells I use, or with the same shell starting at different directories, or as different users.

Ideally, everytime that I start Console, I would like all tabs (or some, pre-selected by me) to automatically open, in an order that I can specify.

Thanks!

Full Unix-style copy/paste

You can't quite set up the mouse-based copy/paste as a normal Unix/Linux user would expect. What is expected is as follows:

Highlight text by dragging with the left mouse button.
Click on the window with the middle mouse button to paste. While this happens, the original area remains highlighted.

What you currently have to do is as follows:

Highlight text by dragging with the left mouse button.
Click again somewhere to unhighlight
Paste using the middle mouse button.

You can set things up to immediately unhighlight so you don't have to do the intermediate extra click, but this is unhelpful, and you normally want the highlighting to remain so that you can check that you have highlighted the correct bit.

#1 Read shell menu name from registry

I have added Alt keyboard shortcuts to the context menu. In the new version you'll not be able to edit the way you want but at least you'll have some shortcuts available (&Run Console and &Post to Console).
