cmd_profile

.bash_profile but for windows command line

How to use:

1. Install

Select and download an installation file that is suitable for you:

This file installs cmd_profile ONLY for current user and this file installs cmd_profile for ALL users on your machine

Simply run the file if you downloaded a single-user installation

Run as administrator if you downloaded the installation for all users

2. Uninstall

Download this file and run as administrator to remove cmd_profile for ALL users on your machine

3. Update

Warning: this will revert ALL changes you have made to your profile

Simply run the installation file that you used for installing and it will download latest version

4. Find profile

The single-user profile is located at %USERPROFILE%\cmd_profile.cmd
The multi-user profile is in the same directory where you used the installation file

5. Modify

This is not ALL limitations, but only the known ones (please, open issue if you found one that are not listed here)

You can write anything in your profile, but there are some limitations:

• You cannot use cmd and anything that uses cmd under the hood (reason: every cmd instance uses your profile, so it will be infinite recursion)
• Console applications on C# cannot wait for user input using Console.Read* methods will immediately exit (testing needed) (reason: unknown)
