TSE: Linux: WSL: Cheatsheet 

Hello,

FYIO

Here a start for some possibly frequently used commands when running TSE in wsl on Microsoft Windows

===

1. Principle: install TSE only once, run it on any Linux

Install TSE for Linux only once in a directory of your choice by unzipping the TSE .tgz installation file.

 sudo tar -xzvf tse-linux-4.50-rc24.tgz                                      

===

2. Start the different versions of Linux automatically from within Microsoft Windows:

start cmd.exe /C wsl -d Ubuntu                                                        

start cmd.exe /C wsl -d Debian                                                        

start cmd.exe /C wsl -d SUSE-Linux-Enterprise-Server-12-SP5                           

start cmd.exe /C wsl -d rhel8wsl                                                      

and so on...

===

3. Stop afterwards the different versions of Linux automatically:

start cmd.exe /C wsl --terminate Ubuntu                                               

start cmd.exe /C wsl --terminate Debian                                               

start cmd.exe /C wsl --terminate SUSE-Linux-Enterprise-Server-12-SP5                  

start cmd.exe /C wsl --terminate rhel8wsl 

and so on...                                            

===

4. Run TSE (while in WSL)

    /mnt/<yourinstallationdirectory>/e

     E.g.   

      /mnt/c/temp/tse/e  


5. To change between the different Linux versions use the above start command
   then run the only once centrally installed TSE.

   So you do not have to install TSE for each Linux version separately,
   only one time, you only change the operating system version.

Tested with the latest TSE 4.50 RC24 on Microsoft Windows 10 Professional 

with friendly greetings

WSL 2, btw..  As reported previously, TSE doesn't run under WSL 1.
