Windows Console folk: any chance of tabs in the official terminal?
Current Windows terminal options:
- ConEmu: mainly excellent but a little dated - eg, the active tab color is hard to distinguish but it can't be changed, apparently due to maintainer's insistence it works on Windows XP.
- Hyper: excellent but Ctrl C, Ctrl R etc broken in powershell.
Adding tabs to the Windows console makes more sense than have a third party create an entire console just to support tabs.
Mintty is what I'm using for it. You don't have to install the entirety of Cygwin and its unix-like tools to use it, there's smaller bundles specifically made for WSL like this one: https://github.com/mintty/wsltty
I personally don't want a terminal with built-in tabs or windows since I use tmux for that. On my Mac I use iTerm2 where tabs/windowing is integrated with tmux. Try it and see if you like it! :)
