Windows Batch — ZedExt

Zed Windows Batch Extension

Made with 💙 ZedBadge.dev 💙

Running

Click the play button on the first line, or pick a task from task: spawn.

Run <file> as Administrator opens a separate elevated window by default. To keep it in Zed's terminal, set sudo for Windows to Inline (Windows 11 24H2+). Run this once in an elevated terminal:

sudo config --enable normal

To run with F7 and as Administrator with Ctrl+F7 in batch files, add this to keymap.json. Keep $ZED_FILENAME as written:

{
  "context": "Editor && (extension == bat || extension == cmd)",
  "bindings": {
    "f7": "editor::SpawnNearestTask",
    "ctrl-f7": ["task::Spawn", { "task_name": "Run $ZED_FILENAME as Administrator" }]
  }
}

Any other key works too, such as F5. Pick one that isn't already bound, since this binding overrides it in batch files. F5, for example, is Zed's debugger key.
