Pushd and popd are implemented in the current WinXP
Command Processor, as is file/directory name completion
and copy/paste. You can have scrollback by making your
Window size big enough - it's one of the properties of the
shortcut you create.
You will find that many of your much-loved unix facilities
are available in the current command processor. You
may have to nose about a bit to find them!
