    Windows 11 installer: Default Start menu entry just runs tcc.exe, not tcmd.exe, and only the shell window appears - no menus or GUI interface

    I am running Windows 11. It would be useful to see the shortcut for the actual application "Take Command" when you type "Take Command" in the Start menu - rather than the shortcut for "TCC" labeled as "Take Command". In other words, if I type "Take Command" and I see an icon called "Take...

    Windows 11 installer: Default Start menu entry just runs tcc.exe, not tcmd.exe, and only the shell window appears - no menus or GUI interface

    Greetings, and thanks! I must say, the issue I note in the title stymied me for a while. I just purchased Take Command and installed it. I had my registration info copied onto the clipboard, ready to register and run the app, and the first thing I tried to do after running the app was to enter...

    Different results with TCC than with cmd.exe

    Hello - When I run the following command in a TCC console: mvn -X install:install-file ^-DgroupId=org.eclipse ^-DartifactId=text ^-Dversion=3.5.0 ^-Dpackaging=jar ^-Dfile="P:\_Dan\work\Eclipse\eclipse-java-helios-SR2-win32-x86_64\eclipse\plugins\ org.eclipse.text_3.5.0.v20100601-1300.jar"...

    How to get Take Command to read in all current system environment variables that CMD.EXE sees?

    Vince - Thank you so much! That was it. This thread actually resolved an issue that I figured was an issue with TC - but wasn't. I know you mentioned to start TC from within Explorer, and I thought at the time you meant "not from the command line of CMD.exe". It didn't occur to me to...

    How to get Take Command to read in all current system environment variables that CMD.EXE sees?

    Vince - I am referring here to a *change* in an existing environment variable, rather than the addition of a new one. If I follow this sequence of steps: (->) Run TC (->) Change an environment variable through CP (->) Issue the 'set' command twice (->) (Note - the change in the environment...

    How to get Take Command to read in all current system environment variables that CMD.EXE sees?

    vefatica - My issue is that when TC itself is *quit* and then *restarted*, that tabs do not have an environment that includes changes previously made via the system control panel to environment variables, even though *new tabs* reflect changes made to environment variables *while TC is running*...

    Is it possible to send a line from the "command input" window to the tab without pressing "Enter", w

    Thanks for the replies - I fully agree with vefatica. It seems somehow obvious to me why you don't want a newline to be entered just because you wanted to reuse a command. I have been reusing commands frequently, and I'm just in the habit of pressing "backspace" to remove the newline that is...

    Open a bash shell in Take Command?

    I understand now, thanks. I have avoided installing Cygwin and don't plan to - but that's fine, just so that I understand that Take Command does not include its own Bash-compatible command line environment. Might be helpful for the Take Command documentation to mention this, even with...

    How to get Take Command to read in all current system environment variables that CMD.EXE sees?

    I've actually selected *both* the option in TCMD, and the option in TCC, for "Update Environment on System Change" ... it does not seem to work. When you quit, then restart, the main Take Command application, new tabs do not show any system environment variable changes that have been made...

    How do I reply to forum postings?

    Wow. Wonder why "Linear" mode isn't the default? I signed up and was immediately in "threaded" mode, unable to reply to postings. I wonder how many others have had the same experience. Thanks, Dan.

    How do I reply to forum postings?

    Hello - Yesterday, I registered for the forums, received the confirmation email, successfully clicked the confirmation link, and later received an email stating that I had been approved to join the forums. I then created 3 threads (each with a question). I would now like to post a "Reply" to...

    How to get Take Command to read in all current system environment variables that CMD.EXE sees?

    Hello (and thanks for taking all my questions) - I would like the Take Command tab (TCC prompt) to see all recent changes to the System environment variables, even after Take Command is restarted. I am aware of the "Update Environment on System Change" option, and I have this selected. This...

    Open a bash shell in Take Command?

    Hello - I see it advertised on the website and in the Take Command help files that it's possible to have a Bash shell tab. However, I can't figure out how to get a bash shell tab to open. Even more importantly and to the point, is it possible to execute Bash shell scripts with Take Command...

    Is it possible to send a line from the "command input" window to the tab without pressing "Enter", w

    Hello - I was wondering if it's possible to send the current line in the Command Input window to the current tab for execution - but *without* pressing the Enter key, which has the side effect of placing a newline in the Command Input window, in addition to sending the current line to the tab...
