Working with CMD and Long Path Names
I like using the command prompt for a lot of things and working with long (or very long) path names is something that is common these days.
Fortunately, you can customize cmd by using "prompt". Do a “prompt /?” in a command window to see all the options.
I like it simple and I use: “PROMPT=$p$_$+$g”. This gives:
C:\Windows\System32\Msdtc\Trace
>
To persist it, set it as an environment variable.
