Changing the command prompt's look

Administrators often find themselves at the command prompt for long periods of time. To make the command prompt environment a bit more comfortable, you can customize its appearance. For example, under the Options tab, you can set the size of the cursor to anywhere from just an underline to a solid, character-sized block. On the Options tab, you can dictate whether the command prompt appears in full-screen mode or a windowed environment. On the Font tab, you can select the font, font size, and bold (if available) font style.
