Is there a way to store settings for the command prompt, so it doesn't revert to default when you close it.

I saw this page which allowed me to change the prompt default but what about things like text color? Is there something similar that needs to be done?

For example I love green and dont want to do

color a

every time...

EDIT:

Got color, but what about Title of the window? Is there a way to make that default?

Example:

title My New Color Window

Click the Control Icon in the command prompt window (icon in the top left of the window) and choose the Defaults options.

Tweak to your content. :)

You can configure the Windows Command Prompt to run any commands you want, including color, title and prompt using the registry key at 

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor\Autorun

If the Autorun key does not exist, create a REG_SZ key Autorun.

Any commands you put in here will be executed for all new cmd.exe windows. Customize away!

I have a lot of ways to change colors, but it is the easier one to change colors and title. Only "start > run" the command bellow or create a shortcut or a BAT with that command:

cmd /k color 89 & title=Your custom title
