  2. source "$HOME/.cargo/env"
  3. sudo apt-get update
  4. sudo apt install build-essential

  6. ferium modpack add kosmolot-unofficial-masa-mods

I would recommend using the no-gui version (cargo install ferium --no-default-features) for now while I figure this out.

@theRookieCoder, you could add a option in ferium for typing the path in.

@theRookieCoder, you could add a option in ferium for typing the path in.

There is, all commands that have any directory argument have command line flags for it.

So, shouldn't this be closed?

theRookieCoder commented 2 weeks ago

No, the GUI file dialogue still doesn't work via WSL to my knowledge? The command line flag and nogui are just workarounds.

How does the dialog box work? It's supposed to be using the Windows dialogue box as AFAIK, WSL doesn't have(install) the Linux file selection dialog right?

theRookieCoder commented 2 weeks ago

I use this library called rfd, on linux (including anything running inside WSL) it will communicate using the xdg desktop portal to use the system's default file picker.
