Hi,

I spent always long minutes to setup terminal for people and i didn't understand why the following profile is not the default one for every windows terminal with powershell :

Import-Module PSReadLine

Set-PSReadLineKeyHandler -Key Tab -Function MenuComplete
Set-PSReadlineKeyHandler -Key UpArrow -Function HistorySearchBackward
Set-PSReadlineKeyHandler -Key DownArrow -Function HistorySearchForward
Set-PSReadLineOption -predictionsource history
Set-PSReadLineOption -HistorySearchCursorMovesToEnd

It requiert "PSReadLine 2.1.0-beta2"
(didn't know why these features are just in beta, because they exist on every other OS since many years, but that's not the point.)

Terminal cannot control the configuration of PowerShell. Terminal is just a pretty box that you can use to access powershell. It would be very good for you to file this as a request for new defaults on the powershell repository! They would like to hear this.
