A command line option to load a particular profile perhaps? And maybe even an override to hide the tabs so its a single console instance only?

winterminal.exe -p "ubuntu_dark" -s
-p = Profile
-s = Single Instance

@mdtauk this isn't about adding support for commandline args, this is about deploying the appxpackage on your machine without opening Visual Studio. This workflow used to be better understood, but since the process of deploying the app was just marginally faster with Visual Studio, I've stopped deploying it from the commandline myself :/

@zadjii-msft My apologies, I thought it was about opening from the Command Line

We don't currently have any guidance on this. If you can deploy the CascadiaPackage from the command line, that would install the terminal.
There should be a script named Install-AppxPacage or similar that should install it

@zadjii-msft I can't see a script with such a name in the repository.

That's my bad, I tried replying on mobile. This is why you don't check work email on your phone.

The actual script is Add-AppDevPackage.ps1, It'll be under something like src\cascadia\CascadiaPackage\AppPackages\CascadiaPackage_1.0.0.0_x64_Debug_Test

@zadjii-msft commented on GitHub (May 17, 2019): That's my bad, I tried replying on mobile. *This is why you don't check work email on your phone*.

Are you sure it isn't this one ".\Terminal\build\scripts\Create-AppxBundle.ps1"?

This is the one I'm looking at and it doesn't work as advertised - surprise lol. it just blows up with a signing error for me, almost immediately. As with building the solution has proven to be for many, I think installing the package from the CLI is going to be just as hairy. I'm trying to cover all angles by using the Windows 10 sandbox as a clean-room environment to install the AppX. I can imagine people are going to be emailing and exchanging zips of the appx with each other behind the scenes and I don't want to accidentally rely on something that's part of my development environment. I thought this would be a quick win but... hahaha, they never are.
