Use Cmder with Bash on Ubuntu on Windows 10

Support for the new Windows 10 bash shell is a closed issue now.
Setting could be done this way:

You make a new task called Bash::Ubuntu

Task parameters:

/icon "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\lxss\bash.ico"

Commands:

cmd /k "%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\bash.exe" -new_console:d:%USERPROFILE%

Then you make a new task called Bash::Ubuntu as Admin

Task parameters same as before Commands:

*cmd /k "%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\bash.exe" -new_console:d:%USERPROFILE%

2018/7/2 no extra setting need with the latest version of Cmder(v1.3.6) and Win10(17134) with WSL(Windows subsystem Linux).

Here's how I did it:

in Settings, Tasks I added a "bash::ubuntu" task which I launch with :

%windir%\system32\bash.exe -cur_console:pm:/mnt

(paste it in the big box in the lower right corner)

I even set up its icon with :

-icon "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\lxss\bash.ico"

(paste it in "Task parameter".)

And it works like a charm, I even set up a personnalised palette locked to bash::ubuntu (using Ap Distinct) that looks like the purple terminal from ubuntu.

BTW the latest version of ConEmu has already bash.exe setup under Bash::bash.

Here's how it looks for me
