In "Starting Directory" at "Windows Terminal General Profile Setting" https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/terminal/blob/main/TerminalDocs/customize-settings/profile-general.md#starting-directory, its written that it's optional to specify
startingDirectory
and it will default to%USERPROFILE%
, however, the latter then notesI find it a bit confusing as the behavior is actually like this:
startingDirectory
unset:%USERPROFILE%
startingDirectory
explicitly set tonull
: Arbitrary working directory written there.So the documentation doesn't write any distinction between "unset" and "null". Thus, my suggestion is either have another example which tells that setting
startingDirectory
tonull
will use the program working directory. Additionally, the above quoted text may be replaced with:I'm not good at wording it, but the point is the documentation doesn't differentiate between not specifying a field vs. explicitly setting the field to
null
.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
