host command in Command Windows

[ThomyKay]

PLSQL Developer opens up the 16bit command.com shell instead of cmd.com (like SQLPlus) when calling host from Command Windows. That results in mutiple interoperability issues. Would be fine to be conform with SQLPlus here.

Or even better: Be able to open up a configurable shell form PLSQL processor being able to test scripts with other command shells liek bash/ksh etc.

I have added this to the list of enhancement requests.

if you use from command window:
"ho(st) cmd" it actually opens cmd

Installed version 7.0.0 this morning and it's still calling command.com instead of cmd.com or the shell defined in COMSPEC env variable

We'll try to address this is in 7.0.1.
