There are probably better guides to the Windows CMD shell but this is just a collection of stuff that I used over the years and want to keep close.

Enable Quick Edit Mode

Never quite got why this is not set by default. Here is a quick reg recipie for Windows XP.

reg add HKCU\Console /v QuickEdit /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

Disable Quick Edit Mode

There are very few reasons to disable this with the exception that when you select the text in the window an application running currently in that window will stop.

reg add HKCU\Console /v QuickEdit /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
