I need to build a terminal-like application that needs to be used under my usual Ubuntu install but also under Windows. I've been looking for a terminal component that accepts commands and is able to show some kind of command history together with output.

There is a component called VTE that is used in gnome-terminal, but I have not been able to compile it under Windows because it depends on some Unix-specific functions (as it seems). Do you know of any other terminal-like GTK components that can be built under Windows or some way to build VTE?

Gnuplot wxt provides a terminal which is compiled with GTK on X and uses the win32 API on windows. It uses the WxWindows interface to compile into both environments.

Maybe you want to look at the old GNOME widget called zvt, it might have been ported to Win32.
