Vim has a nice GUI. It behaves > pretty much the same as when running on X. I've never used Win32 zsh so can't help you with the other questions. There isn't any plans I've heard of to write a Win 95 GUI for zsh. The problem is the program Microsoft supply for running DOS programs in a window because it's crap. What would be more useful than adding a GUI to win32 zsh (like that of vim) would be a separate program which can run any DOS application in a window and offers scrolling etc. There is a shareware program which can do this: Take Command. It is based on 4DOS which was a popular command.com replacement before the Windows era. Anyway, Take Command should be able to run the Win32 version of zsh and give you a scollable buffer. I've never tried it myself though. You can get it from JP Software - www.jpsoft.com. Oliver Kiddle
