Modified Git Bash to use Console2

about.txt

Console2 is awesome, and makes working with the command line on Windows much easier.

The problem I had was that when I used the "Git Bash Here" item on Windows Explorer context menus,
it was using the standard command prompt shell. I tracked down the VBS script that is used by the
menu item, and modified it to launch Console2 with the Git Bash settings instead. Below is the
modified VBS script and the Git Bash tab section from my console.xml file.
Obviously path names may vary.

Git Bash.vbs

Set AppObj = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
If WScript.Arguments.Length=1 Then
    AppObj.ShellExecute "C:\Console2\Console.exe", " -t ""Git Bash"" -d """ & WScript.Arguments(0) & """"
Else
    AppObj.ShellExecute "C:\Console2\Console.exe", " -t ""Git Bash"""
End If

TabEntryForConsole.xml

<tab title="Git Bash" use_default_icon="0">
    <console shell="&quot;C:\Program Files\Git\bin\sh.exe&quot; --login -i"
             init_dir="%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%"
             run_as_user="0"
             user=""/>
    <cursor style="0" r="255" g="255" b="255"/>
    <background type="0" r="0" g="0" b="0">
        <image file="" relative="0" extend="0" position="0">
            <tint opacity="0" r="0" g="0" b="0"/>
        </image>
    </background>
</tab>

A brilliant mod Mark. Many thanks !

Thank you so much! This is just what I was looking for. One thing to note for anyone who has any issues running this on a 64 bit version of Windows. Make sure you change the following line in the XML config file.

FROM:
<console shell=""C:\Program Files\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i"

TO:
<console shell=""C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i"
