I've been using this replacement for Terminal.app while it's been in beta, and it's fantastic. It natively supports splitting, windowing, and tabs, and it has great keyboard shortcuts for navigation between all of your windows. It also has fullscreen mode (and top-of-screen mode) if you like to dedicate a Space to it. There's a Solarized theme for it if you're into that sort of thing. It supports Growl if you can't stand not being bugged about unnecessary information (or you can turn it off if you're the productive type).
This is the very first thing I install on a new Mac for development. I highly recommend it.
- nicksergeant 15y agoWow, I had absolutely no idea iTerm did window splitting natively. I had been using dvtm for a while. Thanks for the tip!
- cschmidt 15y agoNotice that this is iTerm2, which I believe is a fork of iTerm, further developed by different people than the original iTerm.
- nicksergeant 15y agoYep I've been running iTerm2. I suppose I've just never looked for the window splitting.
- ams6110 15y agoTerminal.app has tabs, at least as of Snow Leopard. Also does split panes (but they are the same session). I use Terminal quite a lot but have not found it lacking enough to consider replacing it.
- bdunbar 15y agoOne feature of iTerm that we've come to depend on is 'Send input to all sessions'. Don't use it often, but I'm glad it is there.
- pavel_lishin 15y agoHow does it work with growl?
- blacksmith_tb 15y agoIn my experience, it Growl-s notifications like "new data received in tab 2" - of course, the color of the session label on the tab shows that, too.
- zyb09 15y agoThat pretty much sums it up. I've set a global hotkey on ⌘+P to show iTerm on fullscreen (with all my tabs and custom configurations) and I love it =). Much kudos to the developers!
