I'm currently using wsltty, which is mintty for wsl. It's decent, but it's terrible on fast scrolling texts (i.e. `docker logs` for a container without a maximum log size configured)
Alacritty is great if you need actual performance.
Hyper is actually the one with the overall best experience, but it is electron and the usual issues apply.
Fwiw, mobaxterm can also be configured to use wsl.
- pedrocx486 7y agoIs Cmder/ConEmu good? I use it and kinda expected it to be listed.
- mikewhy 7y agoConEmu works but honestly every time I look into Windows terminals I keep looking for another option, there's just so many issues with ConEmu.
- pedrocx486 7y agoAny good ones? I use Cmder (ConEmu based) a lot, but I do notice the issues from time to time.
- y4mi 7y agoMy list wasn't supposed to be exhaustive in any way. I'm sorry if it sounded like that. There are quite a few terminal emulators on windows and I just listed a few I thought noteable. I didn't even mention the new one from Microsoft! If you just want a sleek looking terminal for a few commands, cmder is definitely a valid choice. The occasionally broken copy paste is however dangerous, as it can remove characters from the middle of a line I.e. `rm -rf /tmp/something && echo success` can get shortened to `rm -rf / && echo success`. It's admittedly very unlikely, as it usually just introduces errors such as `rm -rf /tm & echo success`.
- pedrocx486 7y agoThe new one from Microsoft is getting there, is just needs an "Terminal here" on right click ;) Also yes I noticed those issues in Cmder, I'm always looking for better choices that look nice to the eyes.
