"if terminal is nothing more than a UI wrapper for cmd/powershell, then it'll do little to win over developers and sys admins.... The will stick with far better terminals on other systems."

I was under the impression that this was eventually going to be a replacement for cmd in windows, that was the impression the marketing gave me, but to see that not even simple tab complete functionality is being implemented is very sad.

What on earth are you guys even working on, what is this going to achieve? the only thing it does better than cmder is start quicker, its worse at everything else. What a waste of your time.
