> Microsoft is launching a new command line app for Windows, dubbed Windows Terminal. It’s designed to be the central location for access to environments like PowerShell, Cmd, and the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). Microsoft is adding multiple tab support alongside theming and customization for developers who want to tweak the Terminal app.
> Windows Terminal will also support emoji and GPU-based text rendering. Microsoft unveiled the new Windows Terminal app during the company’s Build developer conference today. The software giant is planning to make it available in mid-June, and it marks Microsoft’s latest efforts to improve the developer environment on Windows 10.
> have 3 different terminal environments > instead of fixing that let's put them all in same program why is windows such a mess?
Justin Williams
Welcome to the current year time traveler from 2015. No its still not ready yet, try again.
Jack Phillips
fucking finally, this will btfo every other desktop os
Ayden Gutierrez
They literally presented this minutes ago, lad
Evan Harris
how would you fix it
Jack James
install gentoo
Evan Ross
> Windows Terminal will also support emoji Yeah because that's what I've been missing from terminals for decades.
Colton Jenkins
Let me guess, the performance will still be shit, but it will beat winblows native performance again.
Julian Perry
remove 2, improve 1
Jason Adams
That looks like such a fucking mess
Ryan Butler
t. apple
Owen Morgan
Looks like the botnet is getting desperate. No, seriously, if you link GNU/Linuxey type things, just install GNU/Linux. You don't need any botnet layer for it to run on top of. Just install GNU/Linux on bare metal and be done with the botnet all together.
Julian Carter
too many people rely on powershell and cmd. same reason win32 is still not deprecated although people still use soft built with it.
William Carter
wtf would you make wsl the default command line it's slow af
Lucas Torres
and that's why windows 10 is such a mess, they should keep legacy legacy and not have them in new versions of windows
Noah Murphy
Why the fuck would I need to use emoji on the mf TERMINAL lmfao
i believe they're making something like cygwin of their own. i don't use windows personally but this is indeed good news for developers. but that would mean more work.
Lincoln Lewis
>emoji Finally the terminal stops being a boys only club and becomes more inclusive. I hope MS realizes the importance of gender equality and diversity when they design them. Buckle up, guys!
Grayson Brown
They understand their fragile position and want to suck up all the developers as well. It's simply "S-s-see, y-you don't need for Linux!", too bad it gives people like OP ideas. But that would mean supporting old versions because everyone is too lazy to upgrade, or in the case of W10, doesn't want an """upgrade""". They have to push their shit somehow, and this is the most profitable solution. Too bad it's shit for the consumer.
Connor Howard
and then nobody uses new versions of windows
Liam Edwards
Nobody likes your bullshit Microsoft GTFO
Charles Rogers
hate to meme, but they need to start trimming that legacy fat
do you know why normalfags love windows so much? because it just works. it's bloated but works. if it wasn't bloated it wouldn't work so that won't change. then again, i wounder if i'm actually right about that since reactos is still a thing.
Joseph Price
Sure and lose all my apps.
Juan Gonzalez
start over from scratch
Landon Smith
>emoji >gpu text rendering this will use electron screenshot this post
Jace Scott
I will take WINE/Proton being ever so slightly worse than Windows at general game performance over the cluster fuck that is Win32 and NT any day of the week. Being able to run htop and cowsays in a containerized environment isn't fucking impressive when you consider that the interfaces for those subsystems are a mess of non-standard fuckery that only makes people's toolchains even more complicated. Now that I'm confident in Proton, I have zero reason to be on Windows.
Btw, unless Microsoft is able to continue to carry its business through cloud support, Office, and hardware sales, you're beyond retarded if you have any investments in that company for the foreseeable future.
Kayden Fisher
>command console >power shell >windows terminal
Why
Josiah Brooks
now you linux soiboys have no excuse COMMAND LINE INTERFACEEEE
Landon Brown
Wow a bloated pseudo terminal. Great job microshit.
Carson Ward
more like vscode with internal terminal maximized
Evan Gutierrez
cool! now get rid of cortana and all the telemetry bullshit and maybe i'll think about going back to windows
Logan Howard
Cool! I love having to remember 3 different scripting languages to do my job!
Gavin Martinez
... which runs on electron
Noah Robinson
you're not prescient for saying this
Sebastian Rogers
No because they'd remove the one reason why people like windows. The fact that I can get something like Gl-quake running natively says a lot.
Gabriel Phillips
>Windows Terminal will also support emoji into the trash it goes
Nathan Ramirez
It doesn't run on electron, it's written in C++. Linux' days are numbered. Hope you have your Windows installation CD ready ;)
Samuel Gonzalez
>Visual Studio Code Remote extensions + Windows Terminal + WSL2 they sure are on a roll
merge powershell and cmd, make WSL a powershellcmd program
Aaron Reyes
so you can browse normie posts in instagram-terminal-news-feed
Colton Kelly
excellent unicode support test
Nathaniel Brown
But I already have linux installed on windows.
Angel Perry
this Cool, now we will have a decent terminal emulator for 'blows, an operating system that has inferior scripting capabilities than every other operating system. The problem with windows was not the shitty terminal emulator, it was that the OS itself is garbage. If you want to tinker with your OS windblows is the absolute worse option you can have.
Aaron Gomez
there is literally no reason to ever install loonix on anything anymore
Jason Gomez
Nobody has ever wanted to tinker with their OS except for neets on Jow Forums who have nothing better to do than make sure their riced desktop always shows some trap they jerk off to.
Parker Bennett
LOL MS must be in trouble if they need to hire brown street shitters like you to shill for Windows.
Julian Green
Your post is quite ironic. It's OK, I'm sure someday someone will award you for all the years you've wasted away ricing your DE and shilling Linux. 0.1% btw ;)
Jace Howard
No, they are fixing it. They are unifying it all.
Isaiah Richardson
BAIT Stop replying to bait!(yeah I see the irony)
Bentley Murphy
open sourcing the nt kernel next
Leo Adams
emojis in a terminal? why? do women even use terminals?
Easton Perry
why do people want to use terminals for? Do you guys not like simplicity or something? This shit confuses the fuck out of me.
Owen Walker
>Windows Terminal will also support emoji LOL, take that crap back to Kindergarten
if they make a freemium OS i switch to them. It should be just the basic functionality of an OS with no bullshit and no GUI the rest you piece up by using Linux existing software.
Jaxon Ramirez
Winbot.net 10
Matthew Gomez
thanks but..
Either you need a new certificate installed for this app package, or you need a new app package with trusted certificates. Your system administrator or the app developer can help. A certificate chain processed, but terminated in a root certificate which isn't trusted (0x800B0109)
command prompt and powershell are obsolete, only faggots run shit from the cmd line, while us GUIchads are saving time and energy by clicking scripts and buttons
Eli Gutierrez
>saving time >gui
Camden Sanchez
I think I have screwed it up when running the setup without having ran the cer file. Now i cannot get it to work anymore, nice meme windows :^)
Caleb Howard
brainlet here. is it just a consolidation so that you can run cmd, powershell and wsl scripts together?
