# imp
> A helper to use native systemd support under WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux).
> Note: To run these from Windows rather than an already-running distribution, precede them with `wsl`.
> More information: <https://github.com/arkane-systems/bottle-imp#usage>.
- Initialize the helper functions and keep WSL running until explicit shutdown (run once, at start):
`imp {{[-i|--initialize]}}`
- Run a shell inside a systemd user session:
`imp {{[-s|--shell]}}`
- Run a specified command inside a systemd user session (preserves working directory):
`imp {{[-c|--command]}} {{command}}`
- Shut down systemd and the WSL instance:
`imp {{[-u|--shutdown]}}`
