Topic: use Command Prompt?

What do you recommend for a shell when developing with Rails?

I am mainly using the Windows Command Prompt. It is ok. One issue I have is that it shows only a limited amount of previous text so if I need to quickly scan back through dev logs when i am running script/server, it is a problem.

I have cygwin but have not tried using it for day to day rails development.

I have also played around with powershell but am not sure if it offers any benefits for rails work.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,

John
