I know that cmd.exe
is a console program. When you run that program, it opens your standard black and white rectangular window. Within that window, there is the Command Line Interpreter denoted by >
(this is $
in *NIX systems).
So if cmd.exe
== "Command Prompt" == Console Program, does that make the window that opens a Console, Console Window or a Terminal?
Bonus:
Since a shell is a program that runs other program, cmd.exe
must also be one. That said, what shell is it (i.e. *NIX has bash
for example)? Is it just Windows Shell?
