Guake - Windows 10 + Bash
Solution 1:
ConEmu has a Quake-style console drop-down feature that is activated by Ctrl+~.
Solution 2:
Better late then never, but looks like Windows Terminal 1.9 will support this: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/windows-terminal-preview-1-9-release/
Quake mode
Windows Terminal now comes with quake mode! Quake mode allows you to quickly open a >new terminal instance from anywhere in Windows by typing Win+`. The quake window >will appear on the top half of your screen and can easily be dismissed with the >same keyboard shortcut. If you want to further customize how you can summon the >terminal, check out the new features we have added for global summon on our docs site.
Solution 3:
I was wondering that myself and wrote a simple AutoHotkey script to emulate this behaviour. You can get it here: https://github.com/ehpc/quake-windows-bash.
Solution 4:
I recommend Qonsole. It can show a drop down terminal just use Cmd.
Here is supported Features:
- Custom hotkey
- Slide up & down animation
- Enable Ctrl+v Console pasting
- Transparency options
- Configurable with cmd & console2
- Background screen dimmer
- Internal Update check, (automatic, 5 min after start up)
- Optionally Run Qonsole when Windows Starts
- More..
