Description of the new feature/enhancement

Support cmder as one of the optional shells you can use in Windows Terminal

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Not real sure, but I can use cmder in a CMD window, so it seems like I ought to be able to use it in a Windows Terminal window.

If I have cmder installed, and maybe if I tell you where to find it, it would nice if showed up in the list of shells that you can pick from to use in Terminal.

You are aware that you can add your own shells to Windows Terminal, yes? If we start adding every shell in existence we’ll have a very long list indeed 😄

Hey, Dustin - I wondered about that and web-searched it a little and didn’t see anything, but it sounds like the ability is there, so I will look into it further. Thanks!

In case others stumble into this. I was able to get cmder working in Windows Terminal. My profile ended up looking like this:

{ "guid" : "{3254f3d4-eeff-43d7-a869-59642a7757b7}", "commandline" : "cmd.exe /k %CMDER_HOME%\\vendor\\init.bat", "icon" : "%CMDER_HOME%\\icons\\cmder.ico", "name" : "cmder", "useAcrylic" : false, "acrylicOpacity" : 1.00, "fontFace" : "Consolas", "fontSize" : 12, "closeOnExit" : true, "snapOnInput" : true, "startingDirectory" : "%USERPROFILE%" },

(For others getting here: we also have a growing list of "How to add third party tools to the Terminal", which you can find here: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/blob/master/doc/user-docs/ThirdPartyToolProfiles.md

This guide actually already includes cmder ☺️
