Notes / Docs

Aliases

There is simple support for aliases. They can be created by using the alias command like this: alias ls=ls --color $* . They are pretty
much just doskeys in /config/aliases . One per line. And make sure to handle arguments by putting argument variables $* somewhere.

Updating + Building

There is not much going on here. But if you want to get most recent updates for Conemu just tick auto-updating in preferences. If you want to
clone the repo and build it yourself, you will need PowerShell >=3.0 and 7z. When you are set on that, just run scripts/build.ps1 .
