ShellFlow 0.1.3

Choose a tag to compare

@RaulDevStack RaulDevStack released this 22 Oct 18:42

Choose where your tabs live.

New: tab position

  • Side panel (new default) — tabs are stacked vertically in a panel on the left, one under the other. Switching tabs
    slides the terminal up or down, following the tab's place in the list.
  • Title bar — tabs sit in the title bar as before, and switching slides sideways.
  • Change it in Settings → Appearance → Tab position. It applies immediately, no restart needed.

Everything else works as before: drag to reorder, close buttons, pane counts, the exited-shell warning, colors and
themes.

ShellFlow 0.1.2

@RaulDevStack RaulDevStack released this 20 Oct 21:29

Run ShellFlow as administrator.

New: administrator windows

  • New administrator window — press Ctrl+Shift+F12, use the command palette, or the ⌄ menu next to +. After the
    UAC prompt, an elevated ShellFlow window opens with the current shell and folder.
  • Explorer: right-click a folder, the empty space inside a folder, or a drive → Open ShellFlow here as
    administrator
    . On .bat / .cmd files → Run as administrator in ShellFlow. (On Windows 11 these entries are
    under Show more options, or Shift+right-click.)
  • The administrator window shows an Administrator badge in the title bar and is completely separate from your normal
    window: Explorer launches never land in it by accident, it has its own workspace, and requests made "as administrator"
    open as new tabs in it when it is already open.
  • Command line: ShellFlow.exe --elevate [options].

Windows does not allow elevated and normal shells in the same window, so — like Windows Terminal — elevation always
opens a separate administrator window.

ShellFlow 0.1.1

Choose a tag to compare

@RaulDevStack RaulDevStack released this 19 Oct 19:47

A small update with batch-file support and an important installer fix. If you installed 0.1.0, please update.

New: run batch files in ShellFlow

  • Right-click any .bat or .cmd file → Run in ShellFlow (on Windows 11: Show more options).
  • Optional: turn on Settings → General → Open .bat and .cmd files with ShellFlow to run them on double-click.
  • Each script runs in its own tab, in the script's folder. The tab stays open when it finishes and shows the exit code;
    press Enter to run it again. If ShellFlow is already open, scripts open as new tabs in the same window.
  • Turning the option off, or uninstalling ShellFlow, restores Windows' normal behavior for batch files.
  • Command line: ShellFlow.exe --run <script.bat>.

Fixes

  • Installer: upgrading over a different build could remove the bundled .NET runtime files, after which ShellFlow
    asked to install the .NET Desktop Runtime. The installer now always copies every file, so upgrades are complete.
  • Tabs no longer show a warning badge for shells or scripts that ended successfully.
