Absolutely; great tip.
 
I am usually at 180 columns with 9999 lines. Color is dependent on my security context. For my enterprise admin ID I use blue background, for one domain ID I use red background, for another green background, etc. This way when I go to do something the simple color tells me exactly what userid I am about to use to do what I am about to do...

Subject: [ActiveDir] Slightly OT: command line tips

I was doing some stuff in a command prompt, and was admiring the dnscmd output, and it occurred to me one reason some people don’t like doing things at the command line…  I got in the habit a while back of changing my command prompt window properties to a nice looking font, navy text on white background, 120 characters across and buffer of 9999.  The 120 characters across really helps with the word wrap thing.  Command line output ends up being nice to read, as opposed to defaults which are pretty hard on the eyes J
