iTerm
Version: 0.9.5.0611 ||
Release Date: 2007-08-08 ||
License: Freeware
iTerm is a full featured terminal emulation program written for OS X using Cocoa. We are aiming at providing users with best command line experience under OS X. The letter i represents a native Apple look and feel of the program interface, and an emphasis on complete international support.
Opinions:
Terminal has tabs! Sorry, iTerm! :D
Tabs. Full Screen mode. Anti-aliased fonts. Multiple sessions stored in that can be accessed via hot keys. If you use "ssh" or "vim" on Mac OS X, you should switch to iTerm. Excellent UTF-8 support. I would buy a license if it wasn't open source. I need to make a donation!
A tabbed terminal sounds awfully nice, but I decided to stick it through with Terminal.app so now I use that with GNU Screen for my "tabs".
Not quite as cool, but functional. :)
bleeding edge version supports full screen. Very shiny :)
I just wish that the bookmarking feature was easier to manage and add to.
I still haven't quite figured out why I use this, but I just can't seem to go back to Terminal.app...
was slow for me. and the tabbed interface could be prettier.
The stable version is really slow but the latest CVS builds are great !
The 0.8.x version was really slow on my MacBook Pro. The new one (0.9) is not slow anymore.
Oh, the tabs! Once you use them, it's hard to go back. Kind of like using IE 6 once you've used Firefox. You can do it, but...
