If it's one thing I've often had to change across systems (hardware and operating systems) it's things like font type and size. If one works mostly from one workstation (eg: a laptop) this is less of a hassle (just need to change on each new generation of ppi, and perhaps on some major system upgrades) -- but then one might want to switch things up as new fonts are released every so often.
Edit-compile-run is a rather complicated way to tune font size compared to a slider.
And on that note, while I admire ST for its simplicity, I've been a happy user of Sakura for the past few years (though, sadly not on windows 10... I've yet to find a really good console for w10).
For windows ten I'm using a combination of babun/WSL and cmder. But I agree that there is no good terminal emulator. It's not terribly surprising though. When those aren't enough I have a "seamless" ubuntu VM running.
I think it's somewhat surprising that they got the Linux subsystem for Linux working well, but apparently didn't spend much time on making a proper terminal experience.
Don't get me wrong powershell/the standard terminal is miles ahead of the old crappy cmd.com - but bundling a solid terminal would've gone a long way to pacify my desire to dual boot Linux (read:stop using w10) on my Surface pro.
If I weren't teaching students that run w10 on their own pcs, I would probably have relegated w10 to a vm/wine under Linux.
I use st in i3 under Cygwin on Windows 8.1. If Cygwin works in Windows 10, that (or any other Linux terminal manager of your choice) should be doable there too.
Well, the promise of the Linux subsystem is kind of to not having to run half-ports like cygwin in the first place... Still, appreciate the tip. Any idea how well that works on a high-resolution display like the surface 4?
