### A note on Window's console

If you plan to use `vt-cli` in Windows on a regular basis we highly recommend you avoid the standard Windows console and use [Cygwin](https://www.cygwin.com/) instead. The Windows console is *very* slow when printing large amounts of text (as `vt-cli` usually does) while Cygwin performs much better. Additionally, you can benefit from Cygwin's support for command auto-completion, a handy feature that the Windows console doesn't offer. In order to take advantage of auto-completion make sure to include the `bash-completion` package while installing Cygwin.
