+To start an instance of Windows Terminal and have it execute a command, call `wt.exe` followed by your command.

+Here's an example of calling Windows Terminal to pass a [ping](/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/ping) command argument to echo an IP address:

+Here's an example of calling Windows Terminal to open a new tab with a PowerShell command line, confirming to call the [Start-Service](/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.management/start-service) command, and opening another new tab with Windows Command Prompt open to the `/k` directory:

+### Global summon ([Preview](https://aka.ms/terminal-preview))
+
+This is a special action that works globally in the OS, rather than only in the context of the terminal window. When pressed, this action will summon the terminal window. Which window is summoned, where the window is summoned to, and how the window behaves when summoning it, is controlled by the properties on this action.
+
+**Notes**
+* Any keys bound to `globalSummon` actions in the terminal will not work in other applications while the terminal is running - they will always focus the terminal window.
+
+* If another running application already registered for the given `keys` using the `RegisterHotKey` API, the terminal will be unable to listen for those key strokes.
+
+* Elevated and unelevated instances of the terminal will not be able to both register for the same keys. The same applies to both Preview and Stable versions of the terminal - the first one to be launched will always win.
+
+* These key strokes will only work when an instance of the terminal is already running. To launch the terminal automatically on login, see [`startOnUserLogin`](./startup.md#launch-on-machine-startup).

+#### Arguments
+
+| Name | Necessity | Accepts | Description |
+| ---- | --------- | ------- | ----------- |
+| `desktop` | Optional | `any`, `toCurrent`, `onCurrent` | This controls how the terminal should interact with virtual desktops.<ul><li>`"any"`: Leave the window on whichever desktop it's already on - will switch to that desktop as the window is activated.</li><li>`"toCurrent"` (_default_): Move the window to the current virtual desktop.</li><li>`"onCurrent"`: Only summon the window if it's already on the current virtual desktop.</li></ul> |
+| `monitor` | Optional | `any`, `toCurrent`, `toMouse` | This controls the monitor that the window will be summoned from/to.<ul><li>`"any"`: Summon the most recently used window, regardless of which monitor it's currently on.</li><li>`"toCurrent"`: Summon the most recently used window to the monitor with the current foreground window.</li><li>`"toMouse"` (_default_): Summon the most recently used window to the monitor where the mouse cursor is.</li></ul> |
+| `name` | Optional | String | When omitted (_default_), use `monitor` and `desktop` to find the appropriate most-recently-used window to summon. When provided, summon the window whose name or ID matches the given `name` value. If no such window exists, then create a new window with that name. |
+| `dropdownDuration` | Optional | Integer | Defaults to `0`. When provided with a positive number, "slide" the window in from the top of the screen using an animation that lasts `dropdownDuration` milliseconds. `200` is a reasonable value for this setting.  |
+| `toggleVisibility` | Optional | `true`, `false` | Defaults to `true`. When `true`, pressing the assigned keys for this action will dismiss (minimize) the window when the window is currently the foreground window. When `false`, pressing the assigned keys will only ever bring the window to the foreground. |
+
+When `name` is provided _with_ `monitor` or `desktop`, `name` behaves in the following
+ways:
+  * `desktop`
+    - `"any"`: Go to the desktop the given window is already on.
+    - `"toCurrent"`: If the window is on another virtual desktop, then move it to the currently active one.
+    - `"onCurrent"`: If the window is on another virtual desktop, then move it to the currently active one.
+  * `monitor`
+    - `"any"`: Leave the window on the monitor it is already on.
+    - `"toCurrent"`: If the window is on another monitor, then move it to the monitor with the current foreground window.
+    - `"toMouse"`: If the window is on another monitor, then move it to the monitor with the mouse cursor on it.
+
+The `desktop` and `monitor` properties can be combined in the following ways:
+
+|  | `"desktop"` |  |  |
+| -- | --------- | -- | -- |
+| **`"monitor"`** | `"any"`<br />**Leave where it is** | `"toCurrent"`<br />**Move to current desktop** | `"onCurrent"`<br />**On current desktop only** |
+| `"any"`<br />**Summon the MRU window** | Go to the desktop the window is on (leave position alone) | Move the window to this desktop (leave position alone) | If there isn't one on this desktop:<ul><li>Create a new one in the default position</li></ul>Else:<ul><li>Activate the one on this desktop (don't move it)</li></ul> |
+| `"toCurrent"`<br />**Summon the MRU window TO the monitor with the foreground window** | Go to the desktop the window is on, move to the monitor with the foreground window | Move the window to this desktop, move to the monitor with the foreground window | If there isn't one on this desktop:<ul><li>Create a new one</li></ul>Else:<ul><li>Activate the one on this desktop, move to the monitor with the foreground window</li></ul> |
+| `"toMouse"`<br />**Summon the MRU window TO the monitor with the mouse** | Go to the desktop the window is on, move to the monitor with the mouse | Move the window to this desktop, move to the monitor with the mouse | If there isn't one on this desktop:<ul><li>Create a new one</li></ul>Else:<ul><li>Activate the one on this desktop, move to the monitor with the mouse</li></ul> |
