Visual Studio Terminal

I'm using Visual Studio Code for my various web projects. VS Code recently releases version 1.2. One of the key feature in this release is in-built Terminal, which is docked in VS Code. In Windows machines Command Prompt, we can enable quick edit mode to paste the text from our clipboard by using right-click mouse. Windows shortcut.

This video explains how to configure Microsoft Visual Studio Code's Integrated terminal. You will be able to use Git BASH, PowerShell, and Ubuntu Bash termin.

Visual Studio 2017 lack a proper internal terminal. The Command Line extension has been a good substitute, but it opens up in a separate window. If you work with multiple Visual Studio at the same time, you loose track of which command window belongs to which Visual Studio instance.

Visual Studio Terminal Closes Immediately

Visual Studio Code has it’s own Terminal window built-in, so why not Visual Studio itself? Well, now it is here, a pre-pre tool called Whack Whack (named so because of how you open it).

It runs default with Powershell, and if you have installed Posh-git with your powershell, it also lights up inside WhackWhack, which is super cool! If you don’t know posh-git, it adds some cool extras to the command prompt for git, like shown above – you see the current branch and the git status straight off the command prompt and tab completes for commands and branches.

You can download the Whack Whack terminal from the Visual Studio marketplace, and the project is open sourced at Github.

Scott Hanselman has a nice blogpost on WhackWhack here, which also explains some of the background.

Visual Studio Terminal Not Working

Trap: It should by default use the Ctrl+,Ctrl+, but that seems to depend on your Windows installation, probably localization. Tusk forklift repair manual. On my mixed Norwegian/English setup, the key press to start it up was Ctrl+|,Ctrl+|. (yes, that key press twice) (Which in fact worked better on my keyboard layout, since those keys are so much closer than Ctrl+, so it becomes a one hand operation.)

You can anyway see and change the current shortcut from Tools/Options/Environment/Keyboard.

You can also start the Terminal window from View/Other Windows/Terminal:

Update: Visual Studio Community 2019 – Git Integration
The git integration with Visual studio is great. It is able to find all the git repositories on your machine and show them all nicely in the team explorer.


However, when working with git, it is very useful to see the actual command line output. Using the GUI can obscure what is actually going on.
TFVC source control has the same problem, as when getting the latest changes, you don’t automatically see everything that’s happening, unless you take the time to open the Output window and navigate to the TFVC Output, where with the default settings you only see updated files in a list.

The command line is what really lets you see the details of what’s happening, as well as giving you the ability to try out all the commands and options, not all of which are available from within visual studio.
Below we can see all the details associated with a git pull from a remote repository. Insertions, deletions, and associated counts are neatly laid out and colored in green and red.


How to Quickly Open the Command Prompt with the Project Directory
To quickly get started with the command prompt, it is very helpful to be able to open it directly in the path for the current project. To do this right click on the local git repository in VS and select open command prompt.

This opens a cmd.exe window opened to the project directory. I don’t like having to use tools outside the IDE unless absolutely necessary, as the context switching can slow productivity. I have started using the extension below which integrates a terminal windows.

Visual Studio Terminal Code

Starting with Version 16.6, git functionality is accessible from within Visual Studio without installing an additional extension.
A new Git menu appears in the window title bar. Amada emk programming manual. I had some difficulty getting this menu to appear in my environment, but I eventually got it to work by toggling the “New git user experience” in the Preview Features of settings. For most users, the Git menu should appear by default by installing the new version of Visual Studio.
