  • CuteXterm

    Sensible defaults for xterm in the 21st century

  • > Yeah... xterm with a few tweaks (and some pruning) would still be best for me.

    Check https://github.com/csdvrx/CuteXterm for my bag of tricks :)

    xterm offers the best emulation, period. The developer is reactive and maintain high quality standards. The only real issues for me are the lack of configurable shortcuts, and ligatures. wezterm is a good option if you need these, and don't depend on xterm perfect emulation.

  • cmder

    Lovely console emulator package for Windows

  • The multiple supported shells remind me a little bit of the Windows cmder app, which I recall being pretty decent: https://cmder.app/

    But the cross platform aspect is really nice, even if in my experience using different terminal apps per platform hasn't been too big of an issue.

    Maybe except for MobaXTerm feeling better than most Linux tabbed/split terminal offerings due to its usability and support for sending input to multiple remote sessions at the same time, SSH integration etc.: https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ (something like Remmina is on par with mRemoteNG, so nice but not quite there)
