Terminal and Genexy Shell

FREEIDENative shells: desktopGenexy Shell: every platform

The Terminal panel holds several sessions as named tabs. Sessions can be restored when the panel reopens, and a terminal that an AI agent started can be revealed here so you can see exactly what it ran.

Genexy Shell — emulated Bash-compatible terminal.

Supports scripts, pipes, redirects, and most coreutils.

Type 'help' to list built-in commands.

Each terminal tab is a separate session with the icon and colour of its shell, and can be renamed, reordered and closed independently. The active tab here is Genexy Shell, listed as gnxshell, running a piped command.

Which terminals you get

Terminal choices per platform
Platform	Available terminals
Windows	PowerShell, pwsh, CMD, Bash when available, Genexy Shell
macOS	zsh, bash, fish, sh, Genexy Shell
Linux	bash, zsh, fish, sh, Genexy Shell
Android	Genexy Shell
iOS / iPadOS	Genexy Shell

On Windows, Bash appears only when bash.exe exists, usually through WSL or Git for Windows. On macOS and Linux, Genexy lists the shells actually installed rather than assuming a fixed set.

Genexy Shell

Genexy Shell is a Bash-compatible terminal implemented inside Genexy. It is available on every platform and is the only terminal on Android and iOS, where the operating-system sandbox prevents spawning arbitrary native processes.

It supports:

Bash-style scripts, variables and control flow;
pipelines, such as find . -name "*.java" | grep config;
input and output redirection;
working-directory and filesystem commands;
common Linux-style core utilities;
Git, on desktop, mobile and tablet;
gnx, the code generator commands.


# Typical session
git status --short
find . -name "*.java" | grep config
git log --oneline -5

Type help to list the commands included in your build.

⚠️

Genexy Shell is not a Linux userspace and cannot execute arbitrary system binaries; it implements its own command set. When a tool has to run as a real operating-system process, use a native desktop terminal.

Managing tabs

Use the + menu to pick which shell to start. Tabs can be renamed, dragged into a different order and closed independently. Closing a terminal ends its session, except for a revealed AI-owned terminal, which stays attached to the chat that created it. A run configuration opens its own tab named after it, and closing that tab stops the run.
