Windows Terminal configuration
Recently, I installed the centos subsystem on windows and configured it Windows Terminal. Record the process.
1. Installation
Because the focus is on configuration Windows Terminal, so this point is ignored, directly download and install centos and Terminal in the Microsoft store
Remember 控制面板->程序->启用或关闭windows功能at the 适用于Linux的windows子系统check
Two, the default terminal configuration
After installation Windows Terminal, open the cmd terminal by default, and now it is configured to open the default subsystem centos
open Windows Terminalsettings (json format).
Here is a part of the main configuration posted
"defaultProfile": "{4d4cc780-cacb-5b6f-a183-29b5f6cdcd23}",
"profiles":
{
"defaults":
{
// Put settings here that you want to apply to all profiles.
"acrylicOpacity": 0.1, //背景透明度(0-1)
"colorScheme": "Breeze", //主题名字
//"fontFace": "Fira Mono for Powerline",
"fontFace": "DejaVu Sans Mono for Powerline",
"fontSize": 13
},
"list":
[
{
// Make changes here to the powershell.exe profile.
"guid": "{61c54bbd-c2c6-5271-96e7-009a87ff44bf}",
"name": "Windows PowerShell",
"commandline": "powershell.exe",

},
defaultsIndicates the default configuration, that is, the configuration (cmd, powershell, or subsystem shell)
defaultProfilethat will be adopted in each of them. It represents the current default open terminal. The value is a string of numbers. The guidvalue
listof the terminal is the information of each terminal.
Change the default Terminal, just defaultProfilemodify the guidvalue of the desired terminal in the list.
As above, my current default terminal is CentOS, just defaultProfilemodify it {4d4cc780-cacb-5b6f-a183-29b5f6cdcd23}to
Third, the configuration opens the terminal in the current file
Realize the following functions:
right click -> open the terminal, the terminal path is the current location
1. Right click to open
Download the following icon and put it into the following folder (if you don’t have it, create a new one)
C:\Users\tomorrow\AppData\Local\terminal
tomorrow is the user name, you need to change it to your own user
name. Change the icon name toterminal.ico
New text file
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\wt]
@="Windows terminal here"
"Icon"="%USERPROFILE%\\AppData\\Local\\terminal\\terminal.ico"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\wt\command]
@="C:\Users\tomorrow\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\wt.exe"
Still change the last sentence tomorrowto your user name and name
it after you are done. terminal.regDouble-click to
open the terminal.
2. Set Open Terminal as the current directory
In the configuration file to configure, just add a field startingDirectorycan
be in the default defaultsadd, it may be in listthe configuration to add the corresponding terminals, I have here is the latter
{
"guid": "{4d4cc780-cacb-5b6f-a183-29b5f6cdcd23}",
"hidden": false,
"name": "CentOS",
"source": "Windows.Terminal.Wsl",
"startingDirectory" : "."
}
Added "startingDirectory": "." Right-click to open the current directory
Fourth, the theme
There are many themes on the Windows Terminal Themes website. Choose the one you like, copy the configuration below, and put it in your own configuration. For
example, my configuration is as follows:
"schemes": [
{
"name": "Breeze",
"black": "#31363b",
"red": "#ed1515",
"green": "#11d116",
"yellow": "#f67400",
"blue": "#1d99f3",
"purple": "#9b59b6",
"cyan": "#1abc9c",
"white": "#eff0f1",

"brightCyan": "#16a085",
"brightWhite": "#fcfcfc",

Then fill in the subject name in the defaultsfieldcolorScheme
