Description

The @theia/external-terminal extension contributes the ability to spawn external terminals for electron applications. The extension includes the necessary logic to spawn the appropriate terminal application for each operating system (Windows, Linux, OSX) by identifying certain environment variables. The extension also contributes preferences to control this behavior if necessary.

Note: The extension does not support browser applications.
