tltjr··on Programming like a Pirate (Alt+Shift+M)
Alt+Shift+M extracts text to a method in Eclipse.
tltjr··on Reimagining the Windows Command Line
Quite a few people have brought this to my attention, and it is unfortunately, a confusingly named project. I was unaware of the other project and will probably consider renaming my project if it gets funded. Thanks for pointing this out though.

Kickstarter doesn't let you change your rewards after others have already pledged, but I am going to find a way to ensure that all reward levels will be offered enough licenses to average $10/license.
tltjr··on Reimagining the Windows Command Line
Thanks. I'll make a note to fix that.
tltjr··on Reimagining the Windows Command Line
Great feedback and something I have been concerned about myself. I'm considering adjusting the higher tiers so the cost per license is more consistent.
tltjr··on Reimagining the Windows Command Line
I mention ConEmu in the Kickstarter post. It is an excellent alternative. As for using WPF for a CLI, I think it adds some useful features. At the end of the day, a tool either makes your life easier and you more productive, or it doesn't. I think this tool can add a lot of value.
tltjr··on Reimagining the Windows Command Line
Thanks for all the ideas. The prototype is very buggy. I mostly wanted people to get a feel for the vision. I really like your feature suggestions and will definitely take them into consideration.
tltjr··on Reimagining the Windows Command Line
A lot of Windows users (like myself) are somewhat committed to tools like Powershell in addition to Cygwin. I currently keep both Git Bash and Powershell open so I can switch back and forth as needed. Wish allows me to switch between these seemlessly with a common set of features across both.
tltjr··on Reimagining the Windows Command Line
All great suggestions, thanks! I'll take a look at all these.
tltjr··on Reimagining the Windows Command Line
Thanks for the feedback. The UI is a bit of a hack for the prototype and will be a more proper control for release. Emacs and vim keybindings are on my feature list. I think Ctrl+P and Ctrl+N work for command history in the prototype, but don't quote me on that.
tltjr··on Reimagining the Windows Command Line
Thanks for the input. I haven't tested on Windows 8, so I'm not too surprised. Maybe I'll make separate installers if there is a lot of interest.
tltjr··on Show HN: Wish - A command line enhancement for Windows (Kickstarter)
The funding will primarily be used for developer time. I'll admit it is difficult to come up with a good estimation for what your time is worth, but I felt $25,000 was a fair price for the time investment required.
