The Terminal seems like one of those things that management declares to be “done” and then nobody touches it for a decade, until somebody notices that there’s enough user outcry for a big overhaul. That’s what happened on Windows, where the console rotted for decades until there was finally enough attention to justify the (actually very nice!) new Windows Terminal. Hopefully there will be, because Terminal.app is indeed lagging far behind iTerm and other alternatives now.
- cosmic_cheese 2y agoI’ve tried iTerm several times and have never been able to understand the appeal. The most interesting feature to me is the Visor-style dropdown terminal but that feature doesn’t work half as well as the Visor haxie for Terminal.app did, somehow.
