I've been thinking about adding something like Visor, and I haven't come up with anything yet.

I've only used Windows (XP) seriously for a few months of work, and I agree that it felt like the stone age.

As much as I can see the need for something better on Windows, I no longer use Windows (gladly, too), and I don't own any PCs. Almost all of the hardware that I have easy access to is using Mac OS X these days.

My code is GPL however; so if someone has the drive to actually produce a terminal on Windows, they might find mine useful as a reference. After all, I've implemented fairly complicated things like an XTerm, VT100, VT220, etc. and a UTF-8 decoder, and you wouldn't want to start those from scratch.
