I started Jexer in 2013, and off-and-on it's gotten better. I think my favorite part has been crossing paths with other terminal emulator ecosystem folks over the last few years. This release brings a few prettified effects inspired by other projects that you are all hopefully quite familiar with (notcurses, chafa, and vtm):
* Translucent windows, including images under/over each other and text.
* Animated/pulsing text
* Animated gifs
* A new XtermVideoPlayer example that uses ffmpeg/JavaCV to play movies inside a text-draggable window. (No audio though.)
* New button styles: round, diamond, left/right arrows. The button ends and shadows are drawn with images so specific font support is not required.
* A _much_ faster and _much_ higher quality sixel encoder.
* Different window border styles: single, double, none, and rounded corners.
* A femme theme option.
