Where Can I Download Cmder
Sherilyn Peacher
I've been having trouble finding the cmder inside windows program files. I wanted to make a shortcut to it so that I can easily access it using windows docker but can't find the location. I only have cmder now pinned on my taskbar but I would like to know it's directory path. Thanks in advance.
It's relative to where you installed it. To find out right-click cmder in your taskbar, and you will see that it says "cmder.exe - shortcut", right-click it again and access properties. In the target field you will see your path.
Note click the first register button of the upper section and then save the setting and its done, go to folder where you want to open the application press and hold shift key and right click and will appear ComEmu Here in dialog box.
The first thing we need to do is ensure we know where Cmder.exe is. If you followed my recommendation in my "Setting Up Git & Cmder" post, your Cmder executable will be located at c:\cmder\Cmder.exe, so keep this location in mind as we work with our context menu-enabling Registry Data File.
The simple mode is perfect for anyone short on time, and who has their Cmder.exe file in my recommended location (c:\cmder\). If you do not have Cmder.exe in this location, jump down to Install Option 2: Manual Mode.
I'd recommend using a specific environment variable like %CMDER_HOME% because if you use the same cmder config on multiple hosts, you can set this environment variable to the appropriate directory on each host and use cmder with the exact same configuration. cmder provides a default value for %HOME%, as you can see above, so that seems to be a safe failback value (you get the same behaviour without that line too, but that's probably because the cd failed; which feels nicer to be avoided).
I'm not sure what you mean by this. cmder is just a console emulator that nicely integrates other terminal emulators into its windows. One of these terminal emulators is cmd.exe. So cmder's purpose isn't really to replace cmd.exe, although most certainly you can just create a new tab in cmder whenever you would otherwise spin up a new cmd window. It would be probably useful to know where and why you'd like to use cmder by default instead of cmd?
For example; I want mine to open under my Projects folder so this is what I have.
"C:Program FilesProductivityToolscmderCmder.exe" /start "C:Program FilesProductivityToolsProjects"
As a Windows user, now and then, I have to use the Windows CMD to run somesimple command. Compared to its Linux counterpart (bash, for example), theWindows CMD is totally disaster: it does not support smart TAB completion, itdoes not support pipes and it has a dumb UI… Fortunately, there is a toolcalled cmder which tries to enhance our experience ofusing consoles on Windows systems. It has a decent UI with different colorthemes, support for Linux-style tab completion and more… It is far betterthan windows CMD.
Cmder is a combination of several good tools:Conemu, clinkand git for Windows. In order to use itsfull functionality, it is better to install the full version. After download,just extract the zip package into your program folder. Then you can launch cmderusing launch tools such as Listary.
This can be fixed by adding chcp utf-8 or chcp 65001 in the environmentsettings (see the above setting image). After applying this change, restartcmder and rerun the command, we find that the error message is correctlydisplayed now:
Also, one great thing about this tmux strategy is it works on Windows, MacOS and Linux because tmux is running inside of your existing terminal. That means all you have to do is find a good light weight terminal for your OS and all of your tmux keybindings and terminal usage patterns will work the same everywhere.
The GitHub main page of Cmder project has an instruction that executing .\cmder.exe /REGISTER ALL under the directory of Cmder.exe will create a shortcut into context menu. In fact launching Cmder by this way will just cause an environment variable CMDER_START to be added into current session, the actual cd action is done by the following lines in the %CMDER_ROOT%/vendor/init.bat:
1
2
3
4
5
:: This is either a env variable set by the user or the result of
:: cmder.exe setting this variable due to a commandline argument or a "cmder here"
if defined CMDER_START (
cd /d "%CMDER_START%"
)
This profile should be picked up automatically when the CMDER_ROOT environment variable is set. It will also be detected as an unsafe profile if installed at C:\cmder. You may refer to Cmder's wiki for more information.
One of my absolute favorites in my daily tool basket is cmder. I use it regularly for a lot of things. One of the major benefits is the easy use of an alias, that you can set up with a jiffy. Here's what I'm doing to make my context-switching even easier.
If you've read this far, you now know how easy it is to set up different cluster contexts using aliases with cmder; and even if you don't use cmder, you can switch between the different clusters easily now using kubectl config use-context.
Internally, cmder uses a utility called clink to enable bash-style command-line completion (and other things). You can enable forward-slash as a path separator, but adding some additional clink configuration to your cmder setup. If it does not exist, create cmder.lua in the config directory where you installed cmder. Add the following code:
And available options are: bold, underscore, blink, reverse(enables the "reverse video" mode where the background and foreground colorsare swapped) and conceal (sets the foreground color to transparent, makingthe typed text invisible - although it can be selected and copied; this option iscommonly used when asking the user to type sensitive information).
