## Terminal & Console Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Please take a few minutes to review the overview below before diving into the code:
|
||||
|
||||
## Windows Terminal
|
||||
### Windows Terminal
|
||||
|
||||
Windows Terminal is a new, modern, feature-rich, productive terminal application for command-line users. It includes many of the features most frequently requested by the Windows command-line community including support for tabs, rich text, globalization, configurability, theming & styling, and more.
|
||||
|
||||
The Terminal will also need to meet our goals and measures to ensure it remains fast, and efficient, and doesn't consume vast amounts of memory or power.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Windows console host
|
||||
### The Windows Console host
|
||||
|
||||
The Windows console host, `conhost.exe`, is Windows' original command-line user experience. It implements Windows' command-line infrastructure, and is responsible for hosting the Windows Console API, input engine, rendering engine, and user preferences. The console host code in this repository is the actual source from which the `conhost.exe` in Windows itself is built.
|
||||
|
||||
Console's primary goal is to remain backwards-compatible with existing console subsystem applications.

|
||||
|
||||
Since assuming ownership of the Windows command-line in 2014, the team has added several new features to the Console, including window transparency, line-based selection, support for [ANSI / Virtual Terminal sequences](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code), [24-bit color](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/24-bit-color-in-the-windows-console/), a [Pseudoconsole ("ConPTY")](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/windows-command-line-introducing-the-windows-pseudo-console-conpty/), and more.
|
||||
|
||||
However, because the Console's primary goal is to maintain backward compatibility, we've been unable to add many of the features the community has been asking for, and which we've been wanting to add for the last several years--like tabs!

However, because Windows Console's primary goal is to maintain backward compatibility, we've been unable to add many of the features the community has been asking for (and which we've been wanting to add) for the last several years including tabs, unicode text, emoji, etc.

These limitations led us to create the new Windows Terminal.

## Shared Components

### Shared Components
|
||||
|
||||
While overhauling the Console, we've modernized its codebase considerably. We've cleanly separated logical entities into modules and classes, introduced some key extensibility points, replaced several old, home-grown collections and containers with safer, more efficient [STL containers](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/standard-library/stl-containers?view=vs-2019), and made the code simpler and safer by using Microsoft's [WIL](https://github.com/Microsoft/wil) header library.

|
||||
## Where can I download Windows Terminal?
|
||||
|
||||
The latest release of Windows Terminal can be downloaded from [this repo's Releases](https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/releases) page or [from the Microsoft Store](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/windows-terminal-preview/9n0dx20hk701)

## FAQ
|
||||
|
||||
## I built and ran the new Terminal, but I just get a blank window app!
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure you are building for your computer's architecture. If your box has a 64-bit Windows, change your Solution Platform to x64.
|
||||
To check your OS architecture go to Settings -> System -> About (or Win+X -> System) and under `Device specifications` check for the `System type`.
|
||||
|
||||
## I built and ran the new Terminal, but it looks just like the old console! What gives?
|
||||
## I built and ran the new Terminal, but it looks just like the old console
|
||||
|
||||
Firstly, make sure you're building & deploying `CascadiaPackage` in Visual Studio, _NOT_ `Host.EXE`. `OpenConsole.exe` is just `conhost.exe`, the same old console you know and love. `opencon.cmd` will launch `openconsole.exe`, and unfortunately, `openterm.cmd` is currently broken.
|
||||
|
||||
Secondly, try pressing <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>T</kbd>. The tabs are hidden when you only have one tab by default. In the future, the UI will be dramatically different, but for now, the defaults are _supposed_ to look like the console defaults.

* Don't try to run it unpackaged. Make sure to build & deploy `CascadiaPackage` from Visual Studio, and run the Windows Terminal (Dev Build) app.
|
||||
* Make sure you're on the right version of Windows. You'll need to be on Insider's builds, or wait for the 1903 release, as the Windows Terminal **REQUIRES** features from the latest Windows release.

# Getting Started

## Debugging
|

|
||||
* To debug in VS, right click on CascadiaPackage (from VS Solution Explorer) and go to properties, in the Debug menu, change "Application process" and "Background task process" to "Native Only".
