command prompt IN visual studio .NET

Greetings:

After using it at my place of work, I have found that Visual Studio is
indeed very convenient -- I can open all sorts of documents and even
browse the net without ever leaving the IDE. But I would just like to
know if I could push it a little further:

could I have the command prompt (cmd) show up as one of the files
being displayed in Visual Studio under its own tab within my current
project, or do I HAVE to open up a separate window just for the
command prompt.

The reason for this is that I write programs that performs I/O on
stdin and stdout (scanf, printf, etc), switching between apps on my
computer at work is kind of slow, and having all those command prompt
windows open clutters up my taskbar.

Regards,

Shuo Xiang

I'm having similar issues, I've been doing alot of reading on Console.
But, I'm not sure if that is how it would be used.

Please, Post if you have found a work around.
