Extraterm

Installation

https://extraterm.org/ Find what you need the point of this tutorial is for after the installation.

Install WSL, bash, etc

https://itsfoss.com/install-bash-on-windows/ just follow this tutorial, you don’t need the WSL 2 if you don’t want it.

Make the use of both

Create a new bash session type in Extraterm
Open a bash session
Execute sudo nano /bin/ec.sh and add . "/mnt/c/Program Files/Extraterm/resources/app/extraterm/src/commands/setup_extraterm_bash.sh" in it.

You can then execute “. ec.sh” anywhere and it’ll start the extraterm bash things.

Adding an alias

You could add an alias for the first big command but I prefer it that way.

execute nano ~/.bash_aliases.
Add alias ec=". ec.sh" in it.
and then execute source ~/.bashrc.
