Releases are named using the date, time and git commit hash.
Continuous/Nightly
A bleeding edge build is produced continually (as commits are made, and at
least a daily scheduled build) from the main
branch. It may not be usable
and the feature set may change, but since @wez uses this as a daily driver, its
usually the best available version.
As features stabilize some brief notes about them will accumulate here.

- New: Search Mode: Added
CTRL-u
key assignment to clear the current search pattern. Thanks to @bew! #465 - Fonts:
font_antialias
andfont_hinting
are now deprecated in favor of the new freetype_load_target and freetype_load_flags options. The deprecated options have no effect and will be removed in a future release. The new options provide more direct control over how freetype rasterizes text. - Fonts: when computing default
font_rules
for bold and italic fonts, strip italic and bold components from the family name. eg: if you setfont = wezterm.font("Source Code Pro Medium")
then theMedium
text will be stripped from the font name used to locate bold and italic variants so that we don't report an error loading a non-sensicalSource Code Pro Medium Bold
. #456 - Fonts: fix a regression where bright windows behind wezterm could "shine through" on the alpha channel, and adjust the tinting operation to avoid anti-aliased dark fringes #470 #491

- Fixed: an issue where closing a pane would immediately
SIGKILL
the associated process, rather than sendingSIGHUP
. Thanks to @bew! - Fixed: line-based mouse selection (default: triple click) now extends forwards to include wrapped lines. #466
- Fixed: the RIS escape wasn't clearing the scrollback. #511

20210203-095643-70a364eb
- Fix cursor position after using iTerm2 image protocol #317
- Fix pixel dimensions after changing the pane size; this was mostly invisible but impacted image scaling when using sixel or iTerm2 image protocols. #312
- Add support for OSC 133 which allows annotating output as
Output
,Input
(that you typed) andPrompt
(shell "chrome"). Learn more about Semantic prompt and OSC 133 - Add
ScrollToPrompt
key assignment that scrolls the viewport to the prior/next shell prompt emitted using OSC 133 Semantic Prompt escapes. This assignment is not bound by default. - Fixed an issue where
SpawnWindow
didn't use the current working directory from the current pane to spawn the new window - Added
wezterm start --class CLASSNAME
option to specify the window class name under X11 and Windows, or theapp_id

by default. - Updated internal harfbuzz shaper to 2.7.2
- Fixed ALT-Escape not sending ESC-ESC #338
- Added
allow_square_glyphs_to_overflow_width = "WhenFollowedBySpace"
option to allow square symbol glyphs to deliberately overflow their specified cell width when the next cell is a space. Can be set toAlways
to allow overflowing regardless of the next cell being a space, orNever
to strictly respect the cell width. The default isNever
. #342 - macOS: Improved key input when Option is pressed. Fixed dead key processing when
use_ime=true
. #357 - macOS: Adjusted default dpi to 72 to bring point sizes into alignment with other macOS apps. #332
- Improved font fallback; we now try harder to find a system-provided font for glyphs that are not found in your explicitly configured fonts.
- Revised pty output processing and removed the related
ratelimit_output_bytes_per_second
option - Workaround Cocoa leaking window position saved state file descriptors to child processes on macOS Big Sur, and Gnome/Mutter doing something similar under X11
- The 256 color cube now uses slightly brighter colors #348
- New: added
line_height
configuration option to scale the computed cell height. The default is1.0
, resulting in using the font-specified metrics. Setting it to1.2
will result in a 20% larger cell height. - macOS: Fixed an issue where hovering over the split between panes could result in wezterm becoming unresponsive #391
- Closing windows and
QuitApplication
will now prompt for confirmation before proceeding with the close/quit. Addedwindow_close_confirmation
to control this; valid values areAlwaysPrompt
andNeverPrompt
. #280 - Tidied up logging. Previously ERROR level logging was used to make sure that informational things showed up in the stderr stream. Now we use INFO level logging for this to avoid alarming the user. You can set
WEZTERM_LOG=trace
in the environment to get more verbose logging for troubleshooting purposes. - Windows: fix an issue where VNC-server-emulated AltGr was not treated as AltGr #392
- X11: fix an issue where keys that produce unicode characters retained SHIFT as a modifier instead of normalizing it away. #394
- Fixed an issue where a symbol-only font would be seen as 0-width and panic wezterm #404
- Tweaked mouse selection: we now round the x-coordinate to the nearest cell which makes it a bit more forgiving if the mouse cursor is slightly to the left of the intended cell start. #350
- Added
selection_word_boundary
option to control double-click word selection boundaries. The default is \t\n{}[]()"'`. #405 - Added support for Curly, Dotted and Dashed underlines. See this documentation on the escape sequences how enable undercurl support in vim and nvim. #415

- Setting a really large or really small font scale (using CTRL +/-) no longer causes a panic #428
- Fixed an issue where the mouse wheel wasn't mapped to cursor up/down when the alternate screen was active #429
- Fixed
ToggleFullScreen
not working on macOS and X11. It still doesn't function on Windows.native_macos_fullscreen_mode = false
uses a fast full-screen window on macOS. Set it totrue
to use the slower macOS native "Spaces" style fullscreen mode. #177 - Windows: fix an issue where the initial window size didn't factor the correct DPI when the system-wide display scaling was not 100%. #427
- New:
adjust_window_size_when_changing_font_size
option to control whether changing the font size adjusts the dimensions of the window (true) or adjusts the number of terminal rows/columns (false). The default istrue
. #431 - macOS: we no longer use MetalANGLE to render the gui; it was short lived as macOS Big Sur now uses Metal in its CGL implementation. Support for using MetalANGLE is still present if the dylib is found on startup, but we no longer ship the dylib.
- Windows: when pasting text, ensure that the text has CRLF line endings unless bracketed paste is enabled. This imperfect heuristic helps to keep multi-line pastes on multiple lines when using Windows console applications and to avoid interleaved blank lines when using unix applications. #411
- New: ClearScrollback now accepts a parameter to control whether the viewport is cleared along with the scrollback. Thanks to @dfrankland!
- New: default_cwd to specify an alternative current working directory. Thanks to @dfrankland!
- New: CopyTo and PasteFrom actions. Copy, Paste and PastePrimarySelection are now deprecated in favor of these new options.
- X11: Mouse-based selection now copies-to and pastes-from the
PrimarySelection
by default. The CompleteSelection and CompleteSelectionOrOpenLinkAtMouseCursor actions now require a parameter to specify the clipboard. - X11:
SHIFT-CTRL-C
andSHIFT-CTRL-V
now copy-to and paste from theClipboard
by default.SHIFT-Insert
pastes from thePrimarySelection
by default. - New: Added a new default
CTRL-Insert
key assignment bound toCopyTo(PrimarySelection)
- macOS: Windows now have drop-shadows when they are opaque. These were disabled due transparency support was added. Thanks to Rice! #445
- Unix: adjust font-config patterns to also match "dual spacing" fonts such as Iosevka Term. Thanks to Leiser! #446
- New: Added alternate_buffer_wheel_scroll_speed option to control how many cursor key presses are generated by the mouse wheel when the alternate screen is active. The new default for this is a faster-than-previous-releases 3 lines per wheel tick. #432
- macOS: Dead Keys are now processed even when
use_ime=false
. More details in the docs. #410. - X11: attempt to load cursors from the XCursor.theme resource specified on the root window #524
- Added
file://
URL matching to the default list of implicit hyperlink rules #525
20201101-103216-403d002d

20201031-154415-9614e117
- New: split/pane support!
CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+"
to SplitVertical, andCTRL+SHIFT+ALT+%
to SplitHorizontal. - New: LEADER modifier key support
- New:
window_background_opacity
andwindow_background_image
options to control using background images, transparent windows. More info - New color schemes:
Dracula+
,Gruvbox Light

,Overnight Slumber
,Popping and Locking
,Rapture
,jubi
,nord
. - New: expanded lua API allows handling URI clicks and keyboard events with lua callbacks. See wezterm.on docs.
- The GUI layer now normalizes SHIFT state for keyboard processing.
If a keypress is ASCII uppercase and SHIFT is held then the
SHIFT modifier is removed from the set of active modifiers. This
has implications for your key assignment configuration; previously
you would write
{key="T", mods="CTRL|SHIFT"}
, after updating to this release you need to write{key="T", mods="CTRL"}
in order for your key bindings to take effect. - Added
show_tab_index_in_tab_bar
option which defaults to true. Causes the tab's ordinal index to be prefixed to tab titles. The displayed number is 1-based. You can settab_and_split_indices_are_zero_based=true
if you prefer the number to be zero based. - On Linux and macOS systems, wezterm can now attempt to guess the current working directory that should be set in newly spawned local panes/tabs, in case you don't have OSC 7 integration setup in your shell.
- We now bundle JetBrains Mono and use it as the default font, and add it as a default fallback font. Similarly, we also bundle Noto Color Emoji as a default fallback for emoji.
- Added
automatically_reload_config=false
option to disable automatic config reloading. When set to false, you will need to manually trigger a config reload (default:SUPER+R
orCTRL+SHIFT+R
) CloseCurrentTab
now requires aconfirm
parameter.- Halved the memory usage requirements per Cell in the common case (saving 32 bytes per cell), which gives more headroom for users with large scrollback.
- Reduced initial GPU VRAM requirement to 2MiB. Improved texture allocation to avoid needing lots of VRAM.
- macOS: Fix issue where new windows would open as Cocoa tabs when wezterm was maximized.
- macOS: Fix issue where wezterm wouldn't adjust to DPI changes when dragging across monitors or the screen resolution changed
- macOS: Reduced trackpad based scrolling sensitivity; it was hyper sensitive in previous releases, and now it is more reasonable.
- Fix an issue where EGL failed to initialize on Linux
- If EGL/WGL/OpenGL fail to initialize, we now try to fallback to Mesa OpenGL in software render mode. This should result in its llvmpipe renderer being used as a fallback, which has improved visuals compared to wezterm's own basic CPU based renderer. (This applies to X11/Wayland and Windows systems).
- Setting
front_end="Software"
will try to use the Mesa OpenGL software renderer if available (X11/Wayland/Windows). The old basic CPU renderer has been removed. - The multiplexer server has been moved into its own
wezterm-mux-server
executable. You will need to revise yourserve_command
configuration. - Windows: when started in an RDP session, force the use of the Mesa software renderer to work around problems with RDP GPU emulation.
- Fixed an issue with TLS Multiplexing where bootstrapping certificates would usually fail.
- Windows: Fixed an issue that prevented ALT-Space from showing the system menu in the window.
- Windows: Fixed dead key handling. By default dead keys
behave the same as in other programs and produce diacritics.
However, setting
use_dead_keys = false
in the config will cause dead keys to behave like a regular key; eg:^
would just emit^
as its own character. - Windows: Fixed an issue with the
Hide
key assignment; it would hide the window with no way to show it again!Hide
now minimizes the window instead. - macOS: we now use Metal to render the gui, via MetalANGLE
- Windows: we now prefer to use Direct3D11 to render the
gui, via ANGLE
EGL. The primary benefit of this is that upgrading your
graphics drivers while you have a stateful wezterm session
will no longer terminate the wezterm process. Resize
behavior is not as smooth with ANGLE as the prior WGL.
If you wish, you can set
prefer_egl = false
to use WGL. - Improved image protocol support to have better render fidelity and to reduce VRAM usage when the same image it displayed multiple times in the same pane.
20200909-002054-4c9af461
- Added support for OSC 1 (Icon Title changing), and changed how that interacts with OSC 2 (Window Title changing). If you specify OSC 1 as a non-empty string, then that will be used for the title of that terminal instance in the GUI. Otherwise the Window Title will be reported instead.
- Added missing mappings for Application Keypad keys on Linux
- Workaround an EGL issue where Mesa reports the least-best alpha value when enumerating configs, rather than the best alpha. This could lead to incorrect alpha under XWayland and failure to initialize EGL and fallbacks to the Software renderer in some other cases.
enable_wayland
now defaults tofalse
; mutter keeps breaking client-side window decoration so let's just make it opt-in so that the default experience is better.- Fixed a crash on Linux/X11 when using
wezterm connect HOST
- Added
tab_max_width
config setting to limit the maximum width of tabs in the tab bar. This defaults to 16 glyphs in width.
20200718-095447-d2315640
- Added support for DECSET 1004 Focus Reporting to local (not multiplexer) terminal sessions.
- Added support for SGR 53/55 which enable/disable Overline style.
printf "\x1b[53moverline\x1b[0m\n"
- Windows: updated bundled openconsole.exe to efb1fdd to resolve an issue where bold text didn't respect the configured color scheme.
- Added
bold_brightens_ansi_colors
option to allow disabling the automatic brightening of bold text. - Unix: fix an issue where setting the current working directory for a custom spawned command would not take effect (thanks @john01dav!)
- Windows: fixed buffering/timing issue where a response to a color query in
vim could be misinterpreted and replace a character in the editor with the
letter
g
. - X11: Improved support for non-24bpp display depths. WezTerm now tries harder to obtain an 8bpc surface on both 16bpp and 30bpp (10bpc) displays.
- Windows: fixed falling back to a simpler OpenGL context if WGL is unable to negotiate a robust context. This is useful on systems with dual high/low power GPU hardware where the OpenGL versions for the two GPUs are different!
- Color Schemes: synced with ea2c841
which includes new schemes:
Adventure
,Banana Blueberry
,Blue Matrix
,BlueBerryPie
,Cyberdyne
,Django
,DjangoRebornAgain
,DjangoSmooth
,DoomOne
,Konsolas
,Laser
,Mirage
,Rouge 2
,Sakura
,Scarlet Protocol
,synthwave-everything
,Tinacious Design (Dark)
,Tinacious Design (Light)
.
20200620-160318-e00b076c
- Fixed default mapping of ambiguous ctrl key combinations (
i
,m
,[
,{
,@
) so that they emit the old school tab, newline, escape etc. values. These got broken as part of prototyping CSI-u support a while back. - Added option to enable CSI-u key encodings. This is a new mapping scheme
defined here http://www.leonerd.org.uk/hacks/fixterms/ that disambiguates
and otherwise enables more key binding combinations. You can enable this
setting using
enable_csi_u_key_encoding = true
in your config file. - Very early support for sixel graphics
- macos:
use_ime
now defaults to false; this is a better out of the box experience for most users. - macos: we now attempt to set a reasonable default LANG environment based on the locale settings at the time that wezterm is launched.
- macos: introduce
send_composed_key_when_left_alt_is_pressed
andsend_composed_key_when_right_alt_is_pressed
boolean config settings. Like the existingsend_composed_key_when_alt_is_pressed
option, these control whether theAlt
orOption
modifier produce composed output or generate the raw key position with the ALT modifier applied. The difference from the existing config option is that on systems where Left and Right Alt can be distinguished you now have the ability to control this behavior independently. The default behavior on these systems issend_composed_key_when_left_alt_is_pressed=false
andsend_composed_key_when_right_alt_is_pressed=true
so that the right Alt key behaves more like anAltGr
key and generates the composed input, while the Left Alt is regular uncomposed Alt. - Fonts: fixed an issue where specifying italic or bold in the second parameter
of
wezterm.font
didn't work as intended or documented - Improved terminal emulation conformance; added left/right margin support and now passes esctest to a similar degree as iTerm2
- Fixed an issue where unmodified F5+ would use the CSI-u encoded-modifiers
format, and confused eg:
htop
. ActivateTab
now accepts negative numbers as a way to reference the last tab in the Window. The default assignment forCTRL+SHIFT+9
andCMD+9
is nowActivateTab=-1
, which selects the last tab.- Fixed an issue when applying hyperlink rules to lines that had mixed width characters
20200607-144723-74889cd4
- Windows: Fixed AltGr handling for European layouts
- X11: Added
PastePrimarySelection
key assignment that pastes the contents of the primary selection rather than the clipboard. - Removed old TOML config file parsing code
- Removed old
arg="something"
key binding parameter. This was a remnant from the TOML based configuration. You're unlikely to notice this unless you followed an example from the docs; migrate instead to using eg:action=wezterm.action{ActivateTab=i-1}
to pass the integer argument. - Windows: now also available with a setup.exe installer. The installer enables "Open WezTerm Here" in the explorer.exe context menu.
- Added
ClearScrollback
key assignment to clear the scrollback. This is bound to CMD-K and CTRL-SHIFT-K by default. - Added
Search
key assignment to search the scrollback. Read the new scrollback section for more information! - Fixed an issue where ALT+number would send the wrong output for European
keyboard layouts on macOS and Linux. As part of this the default behavior
has changed: we used to force ALT+number to produce ALT+number instead of
the composed key for that layout. We now emit the composed key by default.
You can switch to the old behavior either by explicitly binding those keys
or by setting
send_composed_key_when_alt_is_pressed = false
in your configuration file. - Windows: the launcher menu now automatically lists out any WSL environments
you have installed so that you can quickly spawn a shell in any of them.
You can suppress this behavior if you wish by setting
add_wsl_distributions_to_launch_menu = false
. Read more about the launcher menu - Added
ActivateCopyMode
key assignment to put the tab into mouseless-copy mode; use the keyboard to define the selected text region. This is bound to CTRL-SHIFT-X by default.
20200517-122836-92c201c6
- AppImage: Support looking for configuration in
WezTerm.AppImage.config
andWezTerm.AppImage.home
to support portable thumbdrive use of wezterm on linux systems - We now check the github releases section for updated stable releases and show
a simple UI to let you know about the update, with links to download/install
it. We don't automatically download the release: just make a small REST API
call to github. There is no data collection performed by the wezterm project
as part of this. We check once every 24 hours. You can set
check_for_updates = false
in your config to disable this completely if desired, or setcheck_for_updates_interval_seconds
to an alternative update interval. - Added support for OSC 110-119 to reset dynamic colors, improving our support for Neovim.
- Change OSC rendering to use the long-form
ST
sequenceESC \
rather than the more convenient alternativeBEL
representation, which was not recognized by Neovim when querying for color information. - Fixed Shift-Tab key on X11 and Wayland
- WezTerm is now also available to Windows users via Scoop
20200503-171512-b13ef15f
- Added the
launch_menu
configuration for the launcher menu as described in Launching Programs. - Fixed a crash when reloading a config with
enable_tab_bar=false
- Fixed missing icon when running under X11 and Wayland
- Wayland client-side-decorations improved and now also render window title
- Implicitly SGR reset when switching alt and primary screen
- Improved config error reporting UI: we now show just a single window with all errors rather than one window per failed reload.
20200406-151651-5b700e4
- Added lua based configuration. Reading TOML configuration will be rapidly phased out in favor of the more flexible lua config; for now, both are supported, but new features may not be available via TOML.
- Added launcher overlay. Right click the
+
button on the tab bar or bind a key toShowLauncher
to activate it. It allows spawning tabs in various domains as well as attaching multiplexer sessions that were not connected automatically at startup. - Windows: we now support mouse reporting on Windows native ptys. For this to
work,
conpty.dll
andOpenConsole.exe
must be present alongsidewezterm.exe
when starting wezterm. - Added
initial_rows
andinitial_cols
config options to set the starting size of new terminal windows - Added
hide_tab_bar_if_only_one_tab = true
config option to hide the tab bar when the window contains only a single tab. - Added
HideApplication
key action (defaults toCMD-H
on macOS only) which hides the wezterm application. This is macOS specific. - Added
QuitApplication
key action which causes the gui loop to terminate and the application to exit. This is not bound by default, but you may choose to assign it to something likeCMD-Q
. - Added
set_environment_variables
configuration section to allow defining some environment variables to be passed to your shell. - Improved connectivity UI that shows ssh and mux connection progress/status
- Fixed a bug where the baud rate was not applied when opening a serial port
- Added predictive local echo to the multiplexer for higher latency connections
- We now grey out the UI for lagging multiplexer connections
- Set an upper bound on the memory usage for multiplexer connections
20200202-181957-765184e5
- Improved font shaping performance 2-3x by adding a shaper cache
- Windows: now has support for TLS based multiplexer connections
- Multiplexer: TLS multiplexer can now be bootstrapped via SSH, and automatically manages certificates
- Unix: We now default to spawning shells with the
-l
argument to request a login shell. This is important on macOS where the default GUI environment doesn't source a working PATH from the shell, resulting in an anemic PATH unless the user has taken care to cover this in their shell startup.-l
works to enable a login shell inzsh
,bash
,fish
andtcsh
. If it doesn't work with your shell, you can use thedefault_prog
configuration option to override this. - We now accept
rgb:XX/XX/XX
color syntax for OSC 4 and related escape sequences; previously only#XXXXXX
and named colors were accepted. - We now accept OSC 104 to reset custom colors to their defaults.
- Added Tab Navigator overlay for folks that hoard tabs; it presents
an interactive UI for selecting and activating a tab from a vertically
oriented list. This is bound to
Alt-9
by default. - Added support for DEC Origin Mode (
DECOM
) which improves cursor positioning with some applications - Added support for DEC AutoWrap Mode (
DECAWM
) which was previously always on. This improves rendering for applications that explicitly disable it. - We now show a connection status window while establishing MUX and SSH connections. The status window is also where any interactive authentication is carried out for eg: SSH sessions.
- Improved SSH authentication handling; we now give you a few opportunities to authenticate and are now able to successfully authenticate with sites that have configured 2-Factor authentication in their server side SSH configuration.
- Fixed an issue where SHIFT-Space would swallow the space key.
- Nightly builds are now available for Linux in AppImage format.
- Shift+Left Mouse button can now be used to extend the selection to the clicked location. This is particularly helpful when you want to select something that is larger than the viewport.
- Windows: a single mouse wheel tick now scrolls by the number of positions configured in the Windows system settings (default 3)
- Windows: fixed IME position when the tab bar is enabled
- Windows: removed support for WinPty, which was too difficult to obtain, configure and use.
- Configuration errors now show in a separate window on startup, or when the configuration is reloaded
- Improved reliability and performance of MUX sessions, although they still have room for further improvement
20200113-214446-bb6251f
- Added
color_scheme
configuration option and more than 200 color schemes - Improved resize behavior; lines that were split due to the width of the terminal are now rewrapped on resize. Issue 14
- Double-click and triple-click and hold followed by a drag now extends the selection by word and line respectively.
- The OSC 7 (CurrentWorkingDirectory) escape sequence is now supported; wezterm records the cwd in a tab and that will be used to set the working directory when spawning new tabs in the same domain. You will need to configure your shell to emit OSC 7 when appropriate.
- Changed Backspace/Delete handling
- Added
MoveTabRelative
for changing the ordering of tabs within a window using key assignmentsCTRL+SHIFT+PageUp
andCTRL+SHIFT+PageDown
- The multiplexer protocol is undergoing major changes. The multiplexer will now raise an error if the client and server are incompatible.
- Fixed an issue where wezterm would linger for a few seconds after the last tab was closed
- Fixed an issue where wezterm wouldn't repaint the screen after a tab was closed
- Clicking the OS window close button in the titlebar now closes the window rather than the active tab
- Added
use_ime
option to optionally disable the use of the IME on macOS. You might consider enabling this if you don't like the way that the IME swallows key repeats for some keys. - Fix an issue where the pidfile would leak into child processes and block restarting the mux server
- Fix an issue where the title bars of remote tabs were not picked up at domain attach time
- Fixed selection and scrollbar position for multiplexer tabs
- Added
ScrollByPage
key assignment and moved theSHIFT+PageUp
handling up to the gui layer so that it can be rebound. - X11: a single mouse wheel tick now scrolls by 5 rows rather than 1
- Wayland: normalize line endings to unix line endings when pasting
- Windows: fixed handling of focus related messages, which impacted both the appearance of the text cursor and copy and paste handling.
- When hovering over implicitly hyperlinked items, we no longer show the underline for every other URL with the same destination
20191229-193639-e7aa2f3
- Fixed a hang when using middle mouse button to paste
- Recognize 8-bit C1 codes encoded as UTF-8, which are used in the Fedora 31 bash prexec notification for gnome terminal
- Ensure that underlines are a minimum of 1 pixel tall
- Reduced CPU utilization on some Wayland compositors
- Added
$WEZTERM_CONFIG_FILE
to the start of the config file search path - Added new font rendering options:
font_antialias = "Subpixel" # None, Greyscale, Subpixel
font_hinting = "Full" # None, Vertical, VerticalSubpixel, Full
- Early startup errors now generate a "toast" notification, giving you more of a clue about what went wrong
- We now use the default configuration if the config file had errors, rather than refusing to start
- Wayland compositors: Improved detection of display scaling on startup
- Added
harfuzz_features
option to specify stylistic sets for fonts such as Fira Code, and to control various typographical options - Added a
window_padding
config section to add padding to the window display - We now respect DECSCUSR and DECTCEM escape sequence to select between hidden, block, underline and bar cursor types, as well as blinking cursors. New configuration options have been added to control the appearance and blink rate.
- We now support an optional basic scroll bar. The scroll bar occupies the right window padding and has a configurable color. Scroll bars are not yet supported for multiplexer connections and remain disabled by default for the moment.
- Color scheme changes made in the config file now take effect at config reload time for all tabs that have not applied a dynamic color scheme.
20191218-101156-bf35707
- Configuration errors detected during config loading are now shown as a system notification
- New
font_dirs
configuration option to specify a set of dirs to search for fonts. Useful for self-contained wezterm deployments. - The
font_system
option has been split intofont_locator
,font_shaper
andfont_rasterizer
options. - Don't allow child processes to inherit open font files on posix systems!
- Disable Nagle's algorithm for
wezterm ssh
sessions - Add native Wayland window system support
20191124-233250-cb9fd7d
- New tab bar UI displays tabs and allows creating new tabs
- Configuration file changes are hot reloaded and take effect automatically on save
wezterm ssh user@host
for ad-hoc SSH sessions. You may also define SSH multiplexer sessions.wezterm serial /dev/ttyUSB0
to connect to your Arduinowezterm imgcat /some/image.png
to display images inline in the terminal using the iTerm2 image protocol- IME support on macOS and Windows systems
- Automatic fallback to software rendering if no GPU is available (eg: certain types of remote desktop sessions)
