## Custom shell connections
|
|
|
|
Opens a shell using the custom command by executing the given command on the selected host system. This shell can either be local or remote.
|
|
|
|
Note that this functionality expects the shell to be of a standard type such as `cmd`, `bash`, etc. If you want to open any other types of shells and commands in a terminal, you can use the custom terminal command type instead. Using standard shells allows you to also open this connection in the file browser.

|
|
### Interactive prompts
|
|
|
|
The shell process might time out or hang in case there is an unexpected required
|
|
input prompt, like a password prompt. Therefore, you should always make sure that there are no interactive input prompts.
|
|
|
|
For example, a command like `ssh user@host` will work fine here as long there is no password required.
|
|
|
|
### Custom local shells
|
|
|
|
In many cases, it is useful to launch a shell with certain options that are usually disabled by default in order to make some scripts and commands work properly. For example:
|
|
|
|
- [Delayed Expansion in
|
|
cmd](https://ss64.com/nt/delayedexpansion.html)
|
|
- [Powershell execution
|
|
policies](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_execution_policies?view=powershell-7.3)
|
|
- [Bash POSIX
|
|
Mode](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Bash-POSIX-Mode.html)
|
|
- And any other possible launch option for a shell of your choice
|
|
|
|
This can be achieved by creating custom shell commands with for example the following commands:
|
|
|
|
- `cmd /v`
|
|
- `powershell -ExecutionMode Bypass`
|
|
- `bash --posix` |
