Spyder Tools menu missing "open command prompt"

Question

I updated my spyder version to 3.2.3 from 3.1.3 and now I can't find the "open command prompt" option under the "Tools" menu.

When downgrading back to 3.1.3 it came back, but I prefer to use the updated version.

Any ideas where it is?

(Spyder developer here) The command prompt was part of our Python console, removed in Spyder 3.2.0.

To have command prompts after 3.2, you need to install our third-party plugin called spyder-terminal.
