On Linux, the cursor
command which is available within the in-app terminal does not support any command-line flags.
In the terminal, the cursor
command resolves to something like: /tmp/.mount_CursorXXXX/usr/bin/cursor
. On other platforms (OSX, Windows, Windows WSL) this cursor
command supports command-line flags such as --list-extensions
. On Ubuntu Linux, it does not.
Furthermore bash completions are being installed for this command indicating that --list-extensions
is supported when it is not (installed at /tmp/.mount_CursorXXXX/usr/share/bash-completion/completions
).
Repro:
- On Ubuntu Linux, launch Cursor
- Open a new Terminal
- Execute
cursor --list-extensions
Expected: Cursor lists the installed extensions.
Actual: A new Cursor window opens.
