I use conemu at work. It's not as awful as some alternatives. I would recommend it, but I can't say that it's a good experience. Maybe I'm doing something wrong here... do you run vim in conemu? For me, it's slow when redrawing lines of text while paging and sometimes renders artifacts in the pane, especially when I vertically split vim.
For a command line interface, I find it to be fairly unstable, too.
- vishbar 10y agoI use vim in cmder occasionally. The only way I've been able to use it properly is to disable conemu hooks before I execute it. Basically, I've defined a function my profile to: * Save the ConEmuHooks environment variable value * Set it to "Off" * Execute vim * Reset it to the previous value I alias this command to "vim". It's not pretty at all, and it caused me to use Sublime or VSCode most of the time, but it worked for me.

- majkinetor 10y agoWhy would you do that when gvim is available and is ways better experience then vim ? For the sake of being shell purist ? On remote shell ?
- _ix 10y agoI'll give this a shot, but I'm unclear how the hooks affect vim or other processes-does this address all of my vim+conemu problems? Thank you, in any event.
- quotemstr 10y agoHave you tried Cygwin vim in mintty? Also, Emacs has a mode where it'll run as a Cygwin process, but use native win32 widgets. I've found using it to be the most pleasant way of interacting with Windows systems. When I was at Microsoft, I joked that I wasn't so much running "Windows" as GNU/NT. :-)
