<h1> Process Console</h1>
<p> The <strong>Process Console </strong> shows the output of a process and allows you to provide keyboard
input to a process. </p>
<p><img src="../../../reference/views/console/images/ref-console_view.png" alt="Process Console"></p>
<p>The <strong>Process Console</strong> shows three different kinds of text:</p>
<ul>
<li> Standard output </li>
<li> Standard error </li>
<li> Standard input </li>
</ul>
<p> You can choose the different colors for these kinds of text on the <a class="command-link" href='javascript:executeCommand("org.eclipse.ui.window.preferences(preferencePageId=org.eclipse.debug.ui.ConsolePreferencePage)")'> <img src="PLUGINS_ROOT/org.eclipse.help/command_link.svg" alt="Opens the Console preference page"> <strong>Run/Debug &gt; Console</strong></a> preference page. </p>
<p>The extra commands available in the <strong>Process Console</strong> are listed below.</p>
