Conemu: arrow breaks on htop

[sourcevault]

Hi,

I want to raise a non-critial issue, I hope somebody someday resolves it.

• I am using ConEmu 180626[64] on windows 10 Creators Update to use Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).

• There were some issues in the past involving arrow keys that seems to have been resolved in the latest ConEmu builds. (Thanks for that !! really I will donate without fail when somebody gives me a salary).

• However there is some issue with the linux app htop, the arrows keys used for navigating do not seem to be working unfortunately.

• At first I though it was a issue with htop but it seems I was mistaken, htop arrow keys works perfectly fine using cmd.exe. This is my output for arrrow keys in ConEmu.exe:

~$ cat
^[[A^[[B

As you can see it seems to be perfectly what is expected !

for now I am using greg and awk to output htop snapshots.

best wishes and cheers !

Hi @Maximus5,

Thank you for the extremely unexpected swift response !

It worked !

For anyone who might be confused or face the same issue.

• Make sure to use the latest ConEmu build.

• Open Setup Tasks, after clicking the green + dropdown on the right.

• Go to startup > Tasks.

• Find {Bash::bash} on the Predefined task list.

• Copy and Paste this on the task parameter box :

/dir %CD% /icon "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\lxss\bash.ico"

• Copy and Paste this in the big white box at the bottom :

set "PATH=%ConEmuBaseDirShort%\wsl;%PATH%" & %ConEmuBaseDirShort%\conemu-cyg-64.exe --wsl -cur_console:pm:/mnt

Лучший пожелания !
