# [WSL Script](https://sop.github.io/wslscript/)

Shell script _(.sh)_ handler for

[Windows Subsystem for Linux](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/about) _(WSL)_.

Associates .sh _(or any other)_ extension to be executed in WSL.

Automatically handles Windows → Unix path conversions.

Files can be dragged and dropped to registered file icon in explorer

to pass paths as arguments.

## Usage

Copy `wslscript.exe` and `wslscript_handler.dll` to a location of your choice.

These files are used to invoke WSL, so don't move them afterwards.

Run `wslscript.exe` to open a setup GUI.

Enter the extension and click _Register_ button to add filetype association

into Windows registry.

After registration, `.sh` files can be executed from explorer by double clicking.

Other files can be passed as path arguments by dragging and dropping them into

`.sh` file icon.

Scripts are executed in the same folder where the script file is located,

ie. `$PWD` is set to script's directory.
