CLI replacement/enhancer?
« on: November 28, 2003, 09:40:09 PM »
Are there any nice CLI replacements or enhancers for 68k? The only feature I'm missing is the tab completing (for commands and file names) Thanks  :-D

VNC Shell from OS3.9 - highly configurable :))

KingCON! Definately! Beats the competition because its so straight forward simplistic. It does what its supposed to do, no hazzle at all.
If you need music for games, demos or are in a need of a studio mastering engineer, just contact me :-)

VincEd.

Kingcon is ok, but not very powerful. VincEd is better, if you have time to study it and configure it properly.

Yeah! VincED (VNC) is the best, got many features, and if you don't like editing settings, just click on its border gadget, and you've got almost everything on a plate  :-D

I spent a couple of hours with VincEd, but I all I wound up trying to do was turn it into KingCON. After a couple of hours it still wasn't close enough, so I went right back to KingCON.
I sold my Amiga for a small fortune, but a part of my soul went with it.

The drag and drop facility in VINCEd makes for better integration
with Workbench.
Shell VNC and VINCEd are the same program by the way.

KingCON does this, and I believe did it first. I really don't understand how people can prefer the atrocious monstrocity that is Vinced over the obviously superior KingCON.

(IMHO ;-) ).

KingCon!!!

VNC is only an option if you don't have anything to do for a couple of weeks. And then you'll end up with a KingCon config anyway.

Rob, Voytech & KennyR: You all say that because it came with OS39. You can come up with any number of excuses, but the previus statement remains true. It's like when people are asked why M$ products are so good (then try to argue against them...).

KingCon also support drag'n'drop.

VNC suck because there's no acceptable out-of-the-box config and a whole lot of settings you _must_ tinker with to get it into an acceptible shape.
*Zap! Zap!* Ha! Take that! *Kabooom!* Hey, that\'s not fair!

Wrong, I used VincEd long before OS3.9 came out. I'd never go back to KingCON. It's just too limited. Where's the background processes? Where's bg and fg? Why doesn't ctrl+z spawn a new console in the same window ? Why are ascii colours screwed up and why can't I set their pens? Where are all the window open parameters I need? All the special escape codes? The prioritised filename completion? The horizontal scrollbar?

Nah, no chance. KingCON is a kiddie tool. :)
