Obsidian, my question has nothing to do with clear type as such.

Icon names can be smoothed with just a checkbox on, why cmd.exe can't!
In fact fonts in ms office can also be smoothed.

Why not just use Notepad, save it as a .bat, then run it (by double-clicking it)?
If it's something in the CMD that you want in True Type, you could right-click the CMD window, choose "Select All", press Ctrl+C and paste it into Notepad.

Stop teasing!
It is now apparent that this is a sort of commercial strategy by reptile ms.

Actually I wanted to use vim(not gvim) with antialiase on.
