Title: "Shell to run commands in:" input field cannot be changed
Post by: JMeyers91 on September 07, 2012, 05:11:40 am

I am trying to change the default shell of code blocks, but I cannot seem to edit the "Shell to run commands in:" field. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and Code::Blocks version 10.05.

If someone could explain why this is the case and how to fix it, I would be very grateful.

AFAIK, that option is only available on the Linux-like operating systems. What would you like to change it to, and why would like to do this?

Sorry, I was actually referring to the wrong field. The field I need to change is the "Terminal to launch console programs" field just below the shell field.

This is linux-only option, too.
