Original Pull Request: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/pull/3369

State: closed
Merged: No


Summary of the Pull Request

These are settings that apply to every profile, before user customizations. This can be placed in the globals under the "defaultSettings" key. It's a blob of profile settings that will be parsed just like a profile, and applied to profiles after default&dynamic profiles, but before user profiles.

"defaultSettings" is kinda a placeholder key ATM - @cinnamon-msft do we have concerns with this name? Does it make enough sense?

Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

Discussion in #2325 itself serves as the "spec" for this task. I thought we'd need more discussion on the topic, but it ended up being pretty straightforward.
