I'm using WSL2 on Windows 11 and I'm trying to achieve the following: I want to launch Windows applications from within WSL2 and have the Bash terminal maintain a handle to the new process. Specifically, I want to be able to quit the Windows app by pressing CTRL-C in the WSL2 terminal.
For example, when I run mpv.exe from inside WSL2, I want to be able to terminate the mpv.exe process by pressing CTRL-C. Essentially, I want to keep the process in the foreground in the CLI.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to achieve this? I'd appreciate any help.
sleep 3you can see that bash default behavior is waiting, like you want it to. If you see something different it is probably because the application specifically and intentionally evades it.
