Description of the new feature/enhancement

is there a way to implement autostart into terminal? so when i run profile "AD-Shell" it opens me powershell.exe with command "Enter-PSSession -ComputerName SOMEHOST-Credential someuser" ?
i tried adding it to commandline-option in profiles.json and it starts the command but closes terminal as soon as command is run

pretty much like adding a program to .bashrc or .profile in linux (:

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

add a "start-command" switch to profiles.json

Could you share your profiles.json file?

I'm pretty sure that just adding -noexit to the powershell command you're using will prevent Powershell from exiting after the first command, but I'm not a pwsh wizard.

i tried something like
"commandline": "powershell.exe -NoExit -Command {Enter-PSSession -ComputerName SOMEHOST -Credential SOMEUSER}" ,
inside the profiles.json but no luck

Please share how it's failing.
