Edit: on Windows, looks like it's opening in sysWOW64 instead of system32. Any ideas why?
Title. Basically, both of these commands are supposed to open a new console, the former on my mac and the latter on Windows.
For those familiar with Macs, you'll notice when ever you open a application multiple times, for example open chrome and hit cmd+n, it'll open a new window, but it's still under the same "application" on the bottom dock bar. Whenever I do open -a terminal, it seems to pop open a totally new application on the bottom dock bar.
For those familiar with Windows, you'll notice when you open many instances of chrome or a cmd prompt, they kind of get "shuffled" together, where you can hover on the taskbar to see multiple running instances of the same application; however, similar to my mac, it'll open a totally new cmd prompt, instead of "shuffling" it together.
What's the reason behind this, and do I have to be worried about anything?

oropen
commands in a cmd prompt or terminal you might get the same results, right? So it'd be mostly about those rather than Vim... You might have better luck asking about this on Superuser SE, or possibly Ask Different for the one about the Macs...
