CTOnews.com May 27 news, Microsoft recently launched Windows Terminal 1.18in the form of a preview version. This update not only fixes BUG, improves background, and improves performance, but also introduces some new features and features.

According to foreign science and technology media reports, CTOnews.com summarizes and updates as follows:

Drag and drop a tab to generate a separate window after the user upgrades to Windows Terminal 1.18, drag a tab into a blank area, and release it to automatically create a new window instance of Windows Terminal.

Users can also move a tab from one Windows Terminal window to another.

Variable update Windows Terminal 1.18 automatically reloads environment variables when you open a new tab or pane without the need to restart the program.

In addition, you can now add environment variables to settings.json. This can be done in defaults or any configuration file:

"profiles": {"defaults": {"environment": {"MY_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE": "Hi from defaults!"},}, "list": [{"guid": "{574e775e-4f2a-5b96-ac1e-a2962a402336}" "name": "PowerShell", "source": "Windows.Terminal.PowershellCore", "environment": {"MY_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE": "Hi from PowerShell!"}]} right-click menu as part of the experimental project Users can manually enable the right-click context menu function by opening the settings.json configuration file and setting the default value of "experimental.rightClickContextMenu": "true".

"profiles": {"defaults": {"experimental.rightClickContextMenu": true}, the text rendering engine Microsoft has improved the text rendering engine (AtlasEngine) by supporting overlapping text, etc. No longer cut off italic text, emoticons or complex scripts. It will continue to crop the box glyphs to its cells.

Portable mode begins with version 1.18, and Windows Terminal can be deployed as a "portable mode". The new schema ensures that all data created and maintained by Windows Terminal is saved next to the application so that it can be moved more easily in different environments.

Microsoft is using the "Zip" container to distribute this new portable mode, but this feature is not supported in Windows Terminal packaging or pre-installation kit distribution.

You must enable portable mode manually. After unzipping the WindowsTerminal, create a file called .clients next to WindowsTerminal.exe.

WindowsTerminal will automatically create a directory called settings after starting WindowsTerminal.exe. The settings directory will store settings such as window layout and runtime status.

Users with GitHub Copilot AI access to the GitHub Copilot experience will be able to use the natural language AI to recommend commands, interpret errors, and perform actions within Windows terminals in inline and experimental chat experiences. You can register to access Copilot Hub on GitHub in advance.
