Prettify compiling C++ from Command Line : <p>I'm playing with compiling C++ from native Windows CMD via VS 2017 compiler (vsvarsall.bat setup).</p>

<p>Is there any way to reduce the output of <code>cl</code> command, like Microsoft rigths for compiler and linker?</p>

<p>Also, offtop question: is it possible to compile code with UNICODE or ANSI strings (like I'm able to build from Visual Studio IDE), or am I gotta use manual <code>#define</code>s? </p>
