Open Terminal
The Terminal can be opened in Linux by pressing the + + button combination. Similar shortcut can be created in Windows by using the following script in AutoHotkey.
SwitchToWindowsTerminal()
{
windowHandleId := WinExist("ahk_exe WindowsTerminal.exe")
windowExistsAlready := windowHandleId > 0
; If the Windows Terminal is already open, determine if we should put it in focus or minimize it.
if (windowExistsAlready = true)
{
activeWindowHandleId := WinExist("A")
windowIsAlreadyActive := activeWindowHandleId == windowHandleId
if (windowIsAlreadyActive)
{
; Minimize the window.
WinMinimize, "ahk_id %windowHandleId%"
}
else
{
; Put the window in focus.
WinActivate, "ahk_id %windowHandleId%"
WinShow, "ahk_id %windowHandleId%"
}
}
; Else it's not already open, so launch it.
else
{
Run wt
}
}
; Hotkey to use Ctrl+Alt+T to launch/restore the Windows Terminal.
