Original Pull Request: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/pull/9208

State: closed
Merged: Yes


Finally implements the newWindow action. It does so by
ShellExecuteing wt.exe with commandline args corresponding to the
ones that would create the same NewTerminalArgs. This works with #8898
and #9118 to allow new windows (even with windowingBehavior: useExisting)

This is taken from my auto-elevate branch, hence the references to
elevation
