Is it possible to get Linux commands If I'm using the app on Windows 10?

good first issue Question

If you install Ubuntu on Windows, you can set shell as 'c:\\windows\\system32\\bash.exe' in Hyper's preferences. It will then use bash as default. (You need to use double backslashes).

Although I'm not entirely sure about this, as I'm not using Windows, I belive you can use Linux commands if you're using Bash instead of CMD.

@wilburpowery This is called BashOnWindows You can search to enable bash in your windows 10.
This is not hyper related thought.

@wilburpowery I'm using BashOnWindows. So far, so good actually. To use it with hyper, after the installation, type bash, and enter.

Hi all,

I'm a bit confused here; I run the "application" called "Bash on Ubuntu On Windows"; I also use a Windows 10 X Windows server; inside bash you can type: export DISPLAY=:0 and run graphics orientated programs as well.

Thanks!

This should probably be documented somewhere? cc @matheuss

@albinekb Perhaps in ~/.hyper.js as a comment above the shell variable?

If you are using Git for Windows: https://github.com/zeit/hyper/issues/1252#issuecomment-267810099

There's some ways to achieve that, but I'd recommend https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/commandline/wsl/install_guide 馃槃

@albinekb I kinda documented this: https://github.com/zeit/hyper/commit/d54fa3889b4b9d7e48334e9fdd71b13889653187 Do you think it's enough? 馃
