How do I tell rebar3 to use werl on Windows?

Question

This may apply to any rebar commands but it is mostly about rebar shell.

By default rebar uses erl and this might be clunky on Windows shells.

You can run rebar3 (and any other escript) with werl by specifying the ESCRIPT_EMULATOR environment variable. In a Git bash that would be:
ESCRIPT_EMULATOR=werl rebar3 shell

Good, on windows I simply create the environment variable using control panel -> system -> Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables. and that's it. – Pascal Nov 12 '20 at 16:43
