shell

shell

Description

This option specifies the shell program used by the Designer’s terminal emulator. The default shell is cmd.exe on Windows, and bash on other platforms.

Example

Use Git Bash instead of the Windows command prompt. The login and interactive arguments make the shell read the usual profile files, so the terminal behaves like a normal Bash session:

shell: "bash.exe", // Use Bash for Windows shellArgs: ["--login", "-i"]

See also shellArgs.
