2021-08-06204 words 1 min read 4 times read

After updating my Windows system to the latest version. I can finally use the new Windows Terminal.

How to install?

Directly install from GitHub binary release, link here.

Use git-bash in Windows Terminal

Install git for Windows. During installation, there is an option to create a profile for Windows terminal. Remember to tick it on.

Go check windows terminal settings, and choose Git Bash as the default profile.

Remove annoying flash

When I use Git-bash and press backspace, the whole screen flashes which is really annoying. Based on discussion here, we can add following conf to ~/.inputrc:

set bell-style none

Unable to load a font?

I have set up JetBrainsMono NF as my default font. However, when I open Windows Terminal for the first time, it warns:

Unable to find the selected font “JetBrainsMono NF”

Similar issue has been reported here. The solution is to re-install the font and install it for every user instead of the current user.

Add a new colorscheme

This site contains a lot of custom colorschemes for windows Terminal. Press Get Theme to copy the theme configuration.

Then open Terminal config, and paste the theme config to the schemes section and restart Terminal.

There are also some themes here.
