Description
Dupe Check
- I have searched Warp feature requests and there are no duplicates
Describe the solution you'd like?
I'd like an easy way to use a login shell. I use dorothy and it only activates for login shells.
Some potential solutions:
- Check-box that adds "-l" as an argument to the shell.
- Custom shell option that allows you to include arguments. Right now you can only put a path.
- Custom shell arguments option
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm always frustrated when dorothy doesn't activate when using Warp terminal.
