command linewindows
Is there a way to stop the cursor blinking in the Windows command prompt? I have tried setting blink speed to 'none' in Control Panel, but the bloody thing is still blinking me to insanity.
EDIT I didn't set the blink speed to 'none' properly. I did now and it works. I'll keep the question here anyway for future reference. /EDIT
Thanks,
Andreas
Resizing under the properties dialog should work (ensure you are resizing the width and buffer size, resizing the window alone should also increase the buffer), but if it doesn't work you could always:
Redirect the output to a file:
program.exe > C:\path\to\file.txt
Check out Console2
The shortcut key for switching keyboards is by default LAlt + Shift.
If you have multiple keyboards set up (for example US and United States-International), this will toggle between the two. The first has the "normal", desired behavior. The second is the keyboard with the "sticky apostrophe".
As a Dutch and English writer, I find it useful to be able to toggle between the two using the keyboard shortcut. Bear in mind, however, that Windows remembers the setting per application. If you wish to use multiple languages, I recommend setting up two languages with different keyboards, and displaying the Language Bar's active language in the system tray:

Noblink: http://www.columbia.edu/~em36/noblink.html, TSR which allow no blinking cursors
