NOTE: ConsoleZ is NOT a shell. Therefore, it does not implement shell features like command-line completion, syntax coloring, command history, etc.
ConsoleZ is simply a nice-looking front end for a shell of your choice (cmd.exe, 4NT, bash, etc.) Other command-line utilities can also be used as 'shells' by ConsoleZ.
