📄 Description

Summary of the Pull Request

This is the first draft of a spec for adding commandline arguments to the Windows Terminal. This includes design work for a powerful future version of the commandline args for the Terminal, as well as a way that system could be implemented during 1.0 to provide basic functionality, while creating commadlines that will work without modification in (a future Windows Terminal version).
