iTerm's quake-style visor mode bound to a hotkey is too good to give up...

  On macOS you can easily set this up with Hammerspoon, and it'll be independent of the app being toggled, as it should.

  This the the one feature keeping me from jumping. Its so handy!

  Often you hear it should be the desktop job to do this, but given most of them don't, it's moot.

    I wish I could bind applications to slide out from left and right, I use slidepad on Mac which is a slide out web browser, and TotalFinder which has a visor feature for the bottom. Little things like this keep me on Mac to be honest

    I'm not saying you're wrong, but I want the feature. I have it in iTerm, and I don't in WezTerm. We can blame Apple if we want, but they are not going to implement this feature for us.

  "quake-style visor mode" what is that feature? I am currently using iTerm2.

    In Quake, the video game, a console would slide down from the top of the screen when you pressed tilde. Combined with splitting terminals its incredibly convenient to have 4 or 5 terminals toggle on a hotkey

  dont think you need to give it up, there is a description on how to do that in https://github.com/wez/wezterm/issues/1751 https://github.com/wez/wezterm/issues/1751
