start windows cmd in current directory
My preferance of starting cmd
in a certain certain directory is
- simply navigating to the directroy;
- pressing
ctrl
+L
to focus the address bar; - typing
cmd
+enter
.
By this way, a new console window will start and its current directory is previously focused.
start git bash from current directory
- adding the directory where
git-bash.exe
lcoated,D:\Program Files\Git
for example, toPath
. - simply navigating to the directroy;
- pressing
ctrl
+L
to focus the address bar; - typing
cmd
+enter
.
By this way, a new console window will start and its current directory is previously focused.
start msys2 from current directory
following the same step to start msys2
will start msys2
, but the working directory will not be the expected one. To dealing with this, I followed the answer in How can I run msys2 console on cmd current directory? - Stack Overflow, modifying the msys2.ini
to be like
#MSYS=winsymlinks:nativestrict
#MSYS=error_start:mingw64/bin/qtcreator.exe|-debug|<process-id>
#CHERE_INVOKING=1
#MSYS2_PATH_TYPE=inherit
MSYSTEM=MSYS
