   1# Handoff — 2026-09-17 — Windows terminal windows: documentation ahead of the binary
5Six documentation pages per language and the README now say terminal windows and the tools menu work on Windows (pseudo-console, cmd.exe via `%COMSPEC%`). The binary built from this checkout still pins turbo-core **v0.8.0**, which has neither. Uncommitted. Nothing else in flight.
7## Next steps
91. Wait for turbo-core `v0.9.0` (the Windows work sits uncommitted on turbo-core's `main` — see its `handoffs/2026-09-17-windows-terminal.md`).
102. `go get codeberg.org/turbo-editors/turbo-core@v0.9.0 && go mod tidy && GOWORK=off make check`, then tag. `tools.Shell` became `tools.Shell()`; nothing in this repository calls it, so the re-pin should be one line.
113. The first `F8` on a Windows machine, by whoever has one: the five checks are in `docs/*/how-to/use-a-terminal.md`.
13## Watch out for
15- The docs claim Windows support that **has never been run by the authors**, and say so in every place they claim it. Do not soften the wording until somebody has pressed `F8` on Windows.
