Yes of course ! Here they are :
-When I was testing both setting an adequate console title when an app
was launched and the corresponding icon (colors are here for the
eyes): http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/3669/consoletest3.png
-Color changes with the console properties dialog (test on Far Manager
3): http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/742/consoletest4.png
-The first run of a mouse-aware console (test on Far Manager 3).
Right-click on an item in Far Manager (left, the console is in
ENABLE_MOUSE_INPUT mode) and (right) right-click on the console (mode
ENABLE_MOUSE_INPUT off): it displays the edition popup menu:

-The two modes of selection: (left background) "Mark" mode, i.e.
selection via the keyboard (new) and (right foreground) "Selection"
mode, i.e. selection via the mouse (tested on Far Manager; since usual
right-click won't show the edition menu, you have to right-click on
the console title-bar and select "Modify" -- "Selection"):

-To finish, test of Irssi (IRC client in command-line) (this one works
ok in the trunk): http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/1102/irssiros.png
The current console font is Fixedsys Excelsior 3.01 from
http://www.fixedsysexcelsior.com/ (already added in trunk), which is
capable of displaying Unicode characters (but not implemented in the
console).

Congrats!
This is an awesome work!
I will miss all the beauty screenshots now that your work in Console
is almost over!
I'm willing to enjoy the ros-csrss asap!

Even if

decided to

work-in-progress). At
