How can I launch Windows Terminal as my Terminal Viewer in Markdown Monster Recently I had several people asking about Windows Terminal in Markdown Monster:
There are no command line options supported yet (although there's discussion around this and it will come eventually), which means you can't start up the shell in a specific folder, execute a startup command or even pick a profile to start with. One problem currently is that you can't easily automate the terminal application when it launches. You can launch Windows Terminal from anywhere with: wt.exe To make it easy to load, Microsoft provides a globally mapped executable - wt.exe - that you can launch without providing a path from anywhere in your system: From Windows-R, from another console or from another application using CreateProcess() related APIs. It's all very utilitarian which is to be expected - after all the focus first and foremost is on building a better Console Host and it's an early preview. The core terminal functionality is rock solid,īut the Windows UI shell and command interface are not very feature rich around the edges yet. The terminal works great, but it's still in the early stages of development. Open source on GitHub and under active development.Any shell application uses ConHost and the Terminal UI provides the hosting UI for these shell instances. The Terminal acts as a host to those shells that are loaded inside of it. Keep in mind that Windows Terminal is a Terminal UI, plus the Console Host, and it's not a replacement for the Powershell, CMD or Bash shells or any other shell. For me, the main reason is that it ships with a new ConHost.exe, that is considerably faster than the ConHost shipped with Windows which results in much faster terminal painting and scrolling. There are lots of reasons to like this new Terminal and I don't want to get into all of them here.
I've been using Windows Terminal for a while now since it was announced and made available in the Windows Store a few months back.
