windows-terminal-quake

Companion program for the new Windows Terminal that enables Quake-style drop down. Forked from original work by flyingpie

Preview

  • Runs alongside the new Windows Terminal
  • Toggle using CTRL+~ or CTRL+Q
  • Shows up on the screen where the mouse is (eg. multi-monitor and multi-workspace)

Usage

There are a couple of options:

  • Download the latest release from the releases page.
  • Clone/download the source and run build.ps1.
  • Clone/download the source and build using Visual Studio.

Features

  • Persists window dimensions between sessions
  • Pressing hotkey when terminal window is not foreground will bring it to foreground; otherwise it will "slide out"
  • Pressing hotkey when terminal window is minimized will "slide in"
  • Relaunching windows-terminal-quake will also give focus to active terminal window

Known issues/limitations

  • Some minor flicker when restoring window after a "minimize"
  • Should support features like "fit width", hover, etc
  • Probably will not be improved much except to fix really bad bugs, since it's expected that Windows Terminal will probably natively support this/similar much-requested feature
