Awesome! I don't use Windows except for gaming, but its good to know something like this exist. Just to fill up last information gap, is there any good terminal emulator on windows? I remember using something that came with Cygwin long time ago, and it was slow (I think I used Vim on that).
- univerio 11y agomintty comes with cygwin and msys2. It's the one I use. Other people have recommended other terminal emulators like ConEmu, but those have varying (subpar) levels of Unicode/color support.
- self_awareness 11y agoI also use mintty. It's not great, but I haven't seen anything better (it seems that ConEmu is optimized for cmd.exe, not bash). I'm really using `tmux` inside `mintty` so I have an emulation of tabs inside one terminal. It's not super-convinient, requires the user to setup his/her own .tmux.rc, but it gets the job done (still orders of magnitude better than cmd.exe or "even" powershell).
- RobinBlk7 11y agoConEmu "is optimized" for Windows. The problem is that cygwin is not optimized for Windows. But there is cygwin connector: https://conemu.github.io/en/CygwinMsysConnector.html https://conemu.github.io/en/CygwinMsysConnector.html
