I ran 4DOS in the MS-DOS days (and was moderator of the online forum for it on one of the BBS networks of the time.) 4NT was the 32 bit console version of 4DOS, with Take Command as the GUI equivalent. TCC-LE follows in the footsteps of 4NT.
I have it here, but it's not the only thing I use, with Win32 ports of bash, tcsh, and zsh also available. I was running an open source tabbed console manager called
Console, but have largely switched to
ConEmu, which is actively maintained and continuously updated. I can run any of the various command interpreters in a tab, and have all active simultaneously.
Those who just want to add some power to CMD.EXE should look at
Clink, which uses a Win32 port of the Gnu readline library to add bash-style command editing and completion.
For those who like the command line and want a subset of Unix/Linux command line utilities, I like
Gow, which offers many of the Gnu/Linux commands in native Win32 ports, avoiding the overhead of things like
Cygwin or AT&T's
UWIN which use a Posix emulation layer.
