Description

Suggestion

Cmder should somehow recognize if Clink is already injected and inherit the profile path instead of using %CMDER_CONFIG_DIR%.

Use case

If Clink is injected globally on cmd, the history should available if using cmder while maintaining the the Cmder [rompt.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating Cmder’s handling of globally injected Clink and the %CMDER_CONFIG_DIR% profile path; done means the global Clink history is available in Cmder while the Cmder prompt remains intact.
