Thanks for this @DRSDavidSoft! It works almost perfectly, the only thing is that I had some issues with the Arguments, namely if %CMDER_ROOT% contains spaces it will complain that there is no command. Therefor I suggest updating the guide to use quotes (as seen ⬇️), which shouldn't harm anyone using a path without spaces.

👌 Thank you for the observation @ericcornelissen, I updated the wiki!
(The wiki is open to editing for anyone, so you can go ahead and edit it in the future if you see fit!)

Cool! Personally, I'll take my default CMD in Fluent over CMDER, but CMDER will always have it s uses 😄

@DRSDavidSoft, I wanna install agnoster on zsh. Do I need CMDER or should I start somewhere else?

@SayidHosseini

Generally speaking, zsh binaries on Windows work without needing Cmder.

The Cmder package just contains ConEmu terminal emulator, plus Clink shell and some additional batch scripts. zsh _doesn't_ require nor interact with Clink and/or any batch scripts at all, so you won't need those to run zsh.

The ConEmu terminal within Cmder _can_ be used to run zsh -- but seeing that you have commented on this issue, I'd say that you are looking to run zsh on FluentTerminal, not ConEmu. If that's the case, you will not need Cmder _at all_ to run zsh.

In any case, zsh will require an installation of either WSL, git-for-windows/msys2, or Cygwin to run. Do you have any of those?

Cheers! ✌️

Hi!

I followed the instructions point by point, but I keep getting this launching Fluent Terminal in cmd: 'The system cannot find the path specified.'

Launching in Powershell: :
'The module '[CMDER_ROOT]' could not be loaded. For more information, run 'Import-Module [CMDER_ROOT]'.
At line:1 char:3

• . '[CMDER_ROOT]\vendor\profile.ps1'
• ~~~~~~~~~
  
  
  
  • CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: ([CMDER_ROOT]\vendor\profile.ps1:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
  
  
  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : CouldNotAutoLoadModule'
  
  

I setup the environment variable as the instructions told:

Can you help me out with this?
Thanks!

@ntamas9503 Hey there, the [CMDER_ROOT] is actually the place holder for the Cmder path.

Please replace it like this:

[CMDER_ROOT] → %CMDER_ROOT%

and it should work!

[ill-like-matic]

Yeah, it worked with specifying the full path. Thanks for your help!
