How to hold ConEmu window from exiting? - conemu

Gurus
I am using using ConEmu command line to run a shell script in ConEmu. However ConEmu always exits after the script completes. Is there any way to make ConEmu work like "mintty -h always" which keeps the Window open?
ConEMU CLI:
ConEMU.exe /cmd C:\mybin\sh.exe my_script.sh
I wish it holds window like:
mintty.exe -h always -e C:\mybin\bash.exe my_script.sh
Thanks

You may use following syntax
ConEmu.exe /cmd C:\mybin\sh.exe my_script.sh -cur_console:c

In shake-build, how to run a command with a pipe in it?

I can't seem to get the following to work in shake:
cmd_ (AddEnv "PGPASSWORD" "REDACTED") "bzcat /tmp/db.sql.bz2 | psql -U pguser -h localhost dbname"
In Shake, the cmd function and variants spawn processes directly by default. The pipe syntax is only available as part of the OS's shell functionality. To ask Shake to spawn things using the shell add the argument Shell.

After your line of code add another line, like this:
exit
or

Creating a cmd line shortcut

I am completely new to Windows, as i am an OSX user.
I am having to run a task in the cmd line every day, is there any way i can create a shortcut on my desktop which automates this?
Task example, open cmd, then execute:
atomInstaller npm -view -Xmx8g -Xms3g
Thanks
You could just make a shortcut to cmd.exe and add command line switches:
https://superuser.com/questions/358565/adding-command-line-switches-to-windows-shortcuts
Or you can put commands into a batch file using notepad ( or a better text editor ):
#echo off
atomInstaller npm -view -Xmx8g -Xms3g
save it as npm.bat then double-click it..
You can use shortcutjs.bat:
call shortcutjs.bat -linkfile "%userprofile%\desktop\atominstaller.lnk" -target "C:\atomInstaller.bat" -adminpermissions yes -iconlocation "C:\Windows\System32\compstui.dll,3" -hotkey "Ctrl+Shift+M"
Here's the usage:
shortcutjs.bat -linkfile link -target target [-linkarguments linkarguments] [-description description] [-iconlocation iconlocation] [-hotkey hotkey] [-windowstyle 1|3|7] [-workingdirectory workingdirectory] [-adminpermissions yes|no]
You can add additional parameter with -linkarguments or start location with -workingdirectory

ConEmu commands in task

I'm trying to get a Task in ConEmu to open several consoles, and for each run a batch-like script when opened. For example:
Open a Git Bash, name the console "X", set the current directory to "Y".
Open another Git Bash and run a set of commands, for example "cd A/B/C", "vagrant up"
Open a regular command window, run the command "cd D/E/F", "grunt watch"
I want the second and third consoles to appear alongside each other, but underneath the first console. So far I am stuck getting commands to run; I have a task that runs the following:
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i "-cur_console:n:t:Git Bash" "-cur_console:d:C:\Users\Ole Vik\dev"
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i "-cur_console:s1TVn:t:Vagrant"
cmd "-cur_console:s2THn:t:Third"
Reading the ConEmu wiki led me to the new_console and cur_console switches, but I'm having trouble figuring out if I can somehow enter commands in the Task setup, or maybe if I can have it run a .bat script on each console.
No colon is needed between switches (n & t for example).
cmd has /k switch to run commands.
I don't know the way to tell bash "run this command and stay in prompt". May be you need to run commands with &. I'm not sure about second line, you need to check it yourself.
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i "-cur_console:nt:Git Bash" "-cur_console:d:C:\Users\Ole Vik\dev"
cmd -cur_console:s1TVnt:Vagrant /c vagrant up & "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login -i"
cmd -cur_console:s2THnt:Third /k cd /d "D\E\F" & grunt watch

.bat file to open executable within Console2

I am aiming to create a .bat launcher that will execute a command line .exe program within Console2.
My best guess would be that it should go something like:
#echo off
start "" Console.exe program.exe
but all that does it open Console2.
Please note that all .bat, and executables are all in the same folder.
Ok I looked in source for the Console.exe and drilled down into the compiled help.
You need a -r
So: Console.exe -r program.exe
Command line parameters
Console supports these command line parameters:
-c <configuration file>
Specifies a configuration file.
-w <main window title>
Sets main window title. This option will override all other main window title settings (e.g. 'use tab titles' setting)
-t <tab name>
Specifies a startup tab. Tab must be defined in Console settings.
-d <directory>
Specifies a startup directory. If you want to parametrize startup dirs, you need to specify startup directory parameter as "%1"\ (backslash is outside of the double quotes)
-r <command>
Specifies a startup shell command.
-ts <sleep time in ms>
Specifies sleep time between starting next tab if multiple -t's are specified.
I'd never heard of this program, but its source code
else if (wstring(argv[i]) == wstring(L"-r"))
{
// startup cmd
++i;
if (i == argc) break;
startupCmds.push_back(argv[i]);
}
makes it seem like you might want to try:
Console.exe -r program.exe
