(echo "sleep 1.0" && ping -n 2 localhost) > NUL && ^
start /min wt.exe -w exam sp

-> minimized wt, single tab, two panes

Actual Behavior

(echo "sleep 1.0" && ping -n 2 localhost) > NUL && ^
start /min wt.exe -w exam sp

-> visible wt, single tab, two panes

Hmm. Seems that when the second commandline is tossed at the original window, we summon it, always.

I bet there's a way to not summon it if the commandline had a /min on it.

This is where we're getting the visibility of the request: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/blob/3a06826915d11ee2124de9b35e42300e1c3f68d5/src/cascadia/WindowsTerminal/WindowEmperor.cpp#L93-L95

Good catch here, thanks!

oneliner

start /min wt.exe -w exam && (echo "sleep 1.0" && ping -n 2 localhost) > NUL && start /min wt.exe -w exam sp
