Version 0.2.5 (upcoming version)

  • When available, use wslpath to find the WSL path to wslbridge-backend rather than assume it is available on a /mnt/<drv> mount. Fixes a problem with custom mounts in /etc/wsl.conf. #22

  • By default, start the user's configured shell rather than assume it is /bin/bash, and invoke it in login mode (i.e. prefix argv[0] with a dash). Add -l (and --no-login) options to allow overriding the default login shell. (wslbridge -l zsh and wslbridge -t zsh -l will both create a login shell with a pty, but the first command does so using a -zsh argv[0].) #18

  • Added a --backend option to specify a custom path to wslbridge-backend. #23

Version 0.2.4 (2017-08-14)

Changes since 0.2.3

  • Added a --distro-guid option that allows selecting which WSL Linux distribution to use.

Version 0.2.3 (2017-06-30)

Changes since 0.2.2

  • Binaries are linked with -static-libgcc and -static-libstdc++.

  • Build the binaries with an Ubuntu 14.04 WSL installation. The binaries for 0.2.2 were built with Ubuntu 16.04, and do not work on 14.04.

Version 0.2.2 (2017-06-23)

Changes since 0.2.1

  • Fix a race condition affecting spawn failure.

  • Capture and report errors from the Microsoft Bash Launcher (bash.exe). In particular, don't hang if the user tries to simultaneously run elevated and non-elevated WSL instances. #13

Version 0.2.1 (2016-11-14)

Changes since 0.2.0

  • The frontend now synchronizes the Cygwin environment with the Win32 environment before creating the WSL backend process. mintty/wsltty#14

Version 0.2.0 (2016-09-28)

Changes since 0.1.0:

  • Added a -C option that changes the working directory before running the command. The argument is a WSL path. A ~ component at the start of the argument is replaced with the user's home directory. (i.e. $HOME). #2

  • The frontend now canonicalizes its path to the wslbridge-backend binary. #4

Version 0.1.0 (2016-08-17)

Initial release
