Cmder

Latest release is v1.1.3

Cmder is a software package created out of pure frustration over absence of usable console emulator on Windows. It is based on ConEmu with major config overhaul. Monokai color scheme, amazing clink and custom prompt layout.

Why use it

The main advantage of Cmder is portability. It is designed to be totally self-contained with no external dependencies, that is makes it great for USB Sticks or Dropbox. So you can carry your console, aliases and binaries (like wget, curl and git) with you anywhere.

Installation

  1. Download the latest release
  2. Extract
  3. (optional) Place files into bin folder, it will be injected into your PATH.
  4. Run cmder

(There will be a version with installer)

Keyboard shortcuts

Tab manipulation

  • Ctrl + t : new tab dialog (maybe you want to open cmd as admin?)
  • Ctrl + w : close tab
  • Ctrl + d : close tab (if pressed on empty command)
  • Shift + alt + number : fast new tab: 1 - CMD, 2 - Powershell * - More to come
  • Alt + enter: Fullscreen

Shell

  • Shift + Up : Traverse up in directory structure (lovely feature!)
  • End, Home, Ctrl : Traversing text with as usual on Windows
  • Ctrl + r : History search
  • Shift + mouse : Select and copy text from buffer

(Some shortcuts are not yet documented, thought they exist, please add them here)

Features

Aliases

You can define simple aliases with command alias name=command.

For example there is one defined for you alias e.=explorer .

All aliases will be saved in /config/aliases file

Todo

  1. Complete PowerShell compatibility.
  2. Workaround git.exe overload after msysgit download (Granted this is an upstream issue).
  3. Redo Build/Pack scripts or remove them altogether.
  4. Git Bash
  5. Check for clink and git before injecting them
