Functionality

  • The Shell command expands environment variables, so >%appdata% works as expected.
  • On inheriting the Shell plugin from Wox, there are three different ways of executing a command, using the command prompt, powershell or the run prompt. To uphold the name of PT Run, the Shell plugin always executes commands as the Run prompt would.
  • The Shell plugin has a concept of history where the previously executed commands show up in the drop down list along with the number of times they have been executed.
  • The Run prompt has the folder plugin function where we can navigate to different locations and entering the path to a directory displays all the sub-directories. To prevent reimplementing this logic, the shell plugin references the folder plugin to implement this functionality.

Score

The Shell plugin results have a very high score of 5000. Hence, they are one of the first results in the list.
