Consoles (1/3)

[Sylvain Petreolle]

huh ? In which way are you seeing it not work ?
'wineconsole wcmd' is enough to open a shell 

(wcmd.exe, symbolic  link to wcmd.exe.so is already installed in
c:\windows\system
and is in %PATH%)
 
have you tried to do "wcmd /c wcmd" ? it fills the screen with "C:\" or
the windows drectory where you are, cannot stop it with ctrl-c !!
I will make a report when the backend patch will be applied.

will try it .

I totally forgot pipes... thanks for poiting it out.
