Console is a command line client with some interesting features like; tabs, shortcut keys, transparency and a lot more ...
I personally really like the transparency feature. Most of the time I use the command prompt to execute a special command and then switch back to the previous application. The console neatly fading into the background.
It's also possible to run Cygwin or other Command Line processors within Console. In my case I configured my Console with 4 different tabs:
The application settings are stored in a XML file so it's easy to share your configuration between different environments or with other users. You can download my configuration file (save target as ...).
I first heard about Console on Scott Hanselman's blog but that was the version without tabs. More recently Lifehacker made it the Download of the day. That triggered me to try it again. This time it's here to stay.
