Quake/Doom like command prompt for Windows [closed]
Solution 1:
See http://poshconsole.codeplex.com - Joel has implemented a "quake mode" that works exactly like you say.
Solution 2:
poshconsole doesn't work too good, and his development isn't very active. i recomend you to install console2 http://sourceforge.net/projects/console/ and autohotkey, http://www.autohotkey.com/, and use this script:
#|::
DetectHiddenWindows, on
IfWinExist ahk_class Console_2_Main
{
IfWinActive ahk_class Console_2_Main
{
WinHide ahk_class Console_2_Main
if(temptitle="")
WinActivate ahk_class Shell_TrayWnd
else
WinActivate %temptitle%
}
else
{
WinGetActiveTitle, temptitle
WinShow ahk_class Console_2_Main
WinActivate ahk_class Console_2_Main
}
}
else{
WinGetActiveTitle, temptitle
Run Console.exe
}
DetectHiddenWindows, off
return
Result
I just press win+| and i have mi transparent console running powershell. If i press again it disappear, :)
