Platformio-atom-ide-terminal: Use Gitbash or Cygwin inside windows?

[davidhazeldenuk]

If I specify gitbash or babun minty.exe as the overide, it opens the terminal in a new window, how do I prevent that so it loads inside atom?

I had the same issue until I mapped my shell to the following:
C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe

Like @scuba10steve said, you'll want to link to the bash.exe file directly, not the terminal emulator executable.

For a Cywin-based prompt on Windows, I am using Babun as well. If you're using a vanilla version of Cywin, just adjust the path accordingly to point to your installation directory.

For bash:
C:\Users\<username>\.babun\cygwin\bin\bash.exe
with Shell Arguments
--login -i

For zsh (installed as part of Babun):
C:\Users\<username>\.babun\cygwin\bin\zsh.exe
