And it’s actually the same program as the Windows Command Prompt in the sense that it has the same controls- like I press Control and the mouse wheel up to resize this- but it’s a different shell.
Okay.Ġ2:18 So the next one you might find, or you might have seen, is Windows PowerShell, which is also an app, which starts up something like this. Yes.Ġ2:00 Really because it’s old, and it’s trying to emulate an even older system, but it’s just stuck around for so long because so many people use Windows, and so many people still have these scripts from years ago that to just delete it from the system would cause havoc. But anyway, you’ll come to see that I don’t really recommend this application if you’re getting started with this stuff. Okay.Ġ1:46 But I think if you right-click … no, I’m not sure. It’s actually Control, and I moved the mouse wheel up and down. And when you were saying you were making it a bit bigger, you were pressing, like, Control + to increase the font size.Ġ1:37 Control + doesn’t seem to work. You can make that a bit bigger.Ġ1:22 And yeah, this is a terminal or a command prompt or a command line. And I have something else installed, so I’ve got a couple extra lines coming up, but it’s this. So in terms of the terminal, there is a terminal in Windows, though it’s not called the terminal.Ġ0:48 And the classic terminal back from the days when there was MS-DOS is the Command Prompt, which is actually sort of a copy of MS-DOS so that all the scripts that people wrote in MS-DOS could work on Windows.Ġ1:02 So if I go to the Start menu and just type in Command Prompt, you’ll see the app come up here,Ġ1:09 and this is what you will be presented with roughly.
Yes.Ġ0:32 A lot of material on the Internet is very focused towards Unix-based systems, and it can be hard to find some Windows instructions. Let’s jump right in and start with showing how to find the terminal on Windows.Ġ0:15 For other operating systems, on macOS and Linux, it’s there already, and I always thought that Windows also had something like a terminal, but maybe you can show me what’s there usually on a Windows system and how to get a terminal on Windows. Pleasure to be here as the Real Python Windows guy. 00:00 Here we are on the Windows system, and with me is the Real Python Windows guy, Ian.
