G'ah - PLEASE read the posts about which you're commenting - Cmder is a terminal/Console, not a shell.

Cmd.exe is a (headless) command-line shell.

A shell accepts input from a terminal/Console and emits text to its connected terminal/Console to be displayed back to the user.

All this is covered in some detail in the posts thus far.

That's quite clear, I have no idea why people assume I confuse the two. I just said the article helped me to understand why Cmder has certain problems.
