I can't change the type of the VIM cursor when I enter the Insert Mode, when I'm using Console2.

I wanted it to do just like in cmd, as shown in the Figure:

I tried do something like this question, but It didn't work either.

Does anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks.

    I don't believe terminal vim can control the cursor. This is normally done by the terminal emulator (in this case Console2). – FDinoff Aug 04 '14 at 17:29
  • @FDinoff , I don't understand terminal emulators too much. I didn't understand why, calling VIM in cmd/dos, it WORKED, and calling VIM in Console2 it didn't work... I don't know the difference between the two cases. – FLemos Aug 04 '14 at 18:25

You can use ConsoleZ (https://github.com/cbucher/console) and select the cursor named "Console".

I just tried it and have the same behaviour. It seems to be a bug in Console2. I would suggest mintty or a preview build of ConEmu, I know from experience that both handle this correctly.
