Windows Command Prompt (cmd.exe) is the command line interpreter for Windows NT-based operating systems (including Windows 2000, XP, Vista, Server 2003 and Server 2008). It is the analog of COMMAND.COM in MS-DOS and Windows 9x systems. Edit

    The vanguard of power and flexibility. Just kidding, but it's still the most useful program included with Windows.

    I now use a replacement called console2 with tabs and plenty more options, but sometimes for a quick ping or ipconfig you cant beat the cmd.
