Take Command is a convenient, handy and feature rich interactive GUI and command line toolset that makes command prompts easier to use and far more powerful. Take Command includes Explorer-style integration, tabbed console windows, major enhancements to standard CMD.EXE commands such as COPY, DEL, and DIR, more than 140 new internal commands, improved command line editing, and thousands of other features.

The utility provides a powerful batch file programming tool, offering extensions such as DO loops, error and exception handling, block-structured logic, a integrated IDE with a sophisticated editor and batch debugger, third-party plugins, and over 450 built-in variables and functions.

Main Features of Take Command:

- You can run multiple command prompt and GUI applications simultaneously in tabbed windows, including our own Take Command Console (TCC), CMD, bash and PowerShell.
- The integrated file explorer allows you to examine directories and drag and drop files to the tabbed command prompt windows.
- The programmable tabbed toolbar lets you create up to 20 tabs with up to 50 toolbar buttons on each. Toolbar buttons can start new tabs or windows, or send commands or text to existing tabs.
- The TCC scripting language is a massive superset of CMD.EXE, with 174 internal commands, 280 internal functions, and 174 system variables. Almost all of the CMD.EXE command prompt commands (e.g. DIR, COPY, DEL, START, etc.) are enhanced with hundreds of additional options, and TCC adds more than 140 new commands. Take Command can usually do in one or two lines what requires dozens of lines in CMD.EXE (if it could do it at all).
- Almost all of the CMD.EXE command prompt commands (e.g. DIR, COPY etc.) are substantially enhanced, with hundreds of additional options.
- Select or exclude files by date, time, size, owner, description, and extended wildcards or regular expressions for extraordinary flexibility in file management.
- Specify multiple filenames for most file processing commands (i.e., COPY, DEL, MOVE, etc.). (COPY even supports multiple targets as well as multiple sources.)
- The scripting language includes a complete set of flow control structures including IF-Then-Else, DO and FOR loops, SWITCH, subroutines, batch libraries, etc.
- Create and debug your batch scripts with the integrated graphical IDE. The IDE includes tabbed edit windows and a sophisticated debugger with single stepping, breakpoints, syntax coloring, tooltips, bookmarks, tabbed variable and watch windows. Windows batch file programming has never been easier or more powerful!
- The built-in screen scrollback buffer lets you review or print command line output from past commands, and find text in any tabbed window.
- You have multiple types of redirection, including redirecting and piping to STDERR, "here-document" and "here-string" redirection, and Tee and Y pipe fittings.
- Browse command line and directory history, filename and directory completion, and use numerous cut and paste options (even with console applications that have no internal cut and paste support) with the advanced line editor.
- Customize filename completion for any internal or external command or alias. This allows Take Command to intelligently select and display filenames based on the command line you are entering.
- The optional input window (with full undo/redo) allows you to create and edit commands before sending them to the active tab command line window.
- Send keystrokes to any window (command prompt or GUI).
- The built-in text and binary file viewer includes scrolling, search, and print capabilities.
- Find any directory on your system by entering only part of its name with extended directory searches.
- You can access FTP, TFTP and HTTP (including SSL and SSH) directories and files in all command line file-handling commands (COPY, DEL, MOVE, etc.).
- Send SMTP, SMPP, and SNPP messages from your batch files.
- Take Command includes internal compression and extraction commands for GZIP, TAR, and ZIP files.
- Monitor your system's hardware and software events, and execute commands when an event is triggered. You can monitor directory changes, the clipboard, event logs, network connections, services, processes, and USB and Firewire connections.
- Easily query the WMI (Windows Management Interface) to retrieve system configuration information.
- Expand your scripts with the internal support for Perl, Ruby, REXX, Python, Tcl/tk, and any Active Scripting language. You can even combine multiple languages in your batch scripts.
- Create your own variables or commands with plugins, or use one of the many third-party plugin libraries..
