Shell/Cli ala MSDos/Linux Shell?

[gizz72]

Greetings,

I'm wondering: has anyone tried to make the Shell/Cli look like MSDos shell? Complete with a blinking cursor Black background and all? If so please tell me how is it done? :-D Only the shell/cli mode not the whole workbench color set. It seems to affect even WB colors if I try to manipulate palette control. Any tips would be helpful.

Also, I forgot how to generate color text on shell. Thanks all.

I'm sure there were programs like AmIrc that had it's own terminal windows.  I mean, the shell/cli itself behaving like a terminal window. Thanks.

Thanks for the tips. I'm using the OS of Amiga Forever CD, which is, what they call OS3.x. I have adapted the OS to my A1200 would that count? Thanks.

@MrZammler
I'll go over the link you gave me. :-)

Ok I've seen the WBscreen. So does the cursur blink as well? Cool! Cameron Diaz fan, eh?
Later tell how you did it. I'll be going home shortly. Thanks!! :-)

Hmmm, maybe there's a way? Is there?
It just gives me that retro feeling when I stare at it. It just make me creative in a way. Quite cool if it does too. Tried that on Amos Screens too. Make them look like a green block and use the 'Flash' command blink like it was yesterday. :-D

Let me know if you can make it blink. Vinced looks promising. I'll check it out. Thanks!
