Cmder Installer

This repository was created as a wrapper around my favorite terminal emulator Cmder.

The goal is to distribute it to winget and make it available with the new Windows Package Manager. Cmder is a portable application and to create the MSIX package, we needed to create an installer to include the vendor resources.

Instructions

Prerequisites

  1. The latest release archive of Cmder.
  2. NSIS installed.

Steps

  1. Clone the repository
  2. Create the following directory structure.
    1. .\mini\Versions\[FULL_VERSION_NUMBER] e.g. 1.13.8.1106
    2. .\full\Versions\[FULL_VERSION_NUMBER] e.g. 1.13.8.1106
  3. Download the release to the correct version path and extract here.
  4. Edit VERSION Variable in the .nsi scripts. It's the first variable in the each file.
    1. Cmder-mini.nsi
    2. Cmder-full-msi
  5. Launch NSIS.
  6. Compile the scripts by navigating to the cloned repo.
