Oh no, you were perfectly clear. I wrote my post because I don't know of any CLI tools for windows that do this either, so it would seem that a decent CLI tool wrapped in a GUI would still be acceptable. I mean, it's a question of symatics at that point. So, that's why I suggested some of the GUI tools that have a type your query here window. Sometimes you just gotta use what you can get. Some of them have history and all that fancy stuff, they just live inside a GUI app. Me personally, I switched of Windows long ago due to issues like this.
