Shell script (.sh) handler for Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).
Associates .sh (or any other) extension to be executed in WSL. Automatically handles Windows → Unix path conversions. Files can be dragged and dropped to registered file icon in explorer to pass paths as arguments.
Copy wslscript.exe file to a location of your choice.
This executable is used to invoke WSL, so don't move the file afterwards.
Run wslscript.exe to open a setup GUI.
Enter the extension and click Register button to add filetype association
into Windows registry.
After registration, .sh files can be executed from explorer by double clicking.
Other files can be passed as path arguments by dragging and dropping them into
.sh file icon.
Scripts are executed in the same folder where the script file is located,
ie. $PWD is set to script's directory.
Note that Drag & Drop handler may not work until reboot.
