Terminal, snippets and themes

Sessions in tabs, the local terminal, snippets you run in one click, and terminal themes.

Sessions

Each connection opens in its own tab. If the connection drops or the server can’t be reached, the tab stays open with the reason and a Reconnect button. When you leave the shell with exit (or Ctrl-D), the tab closes.

Text size changes with ⌘+ and ⌘-, and ⌘F finds text in the session. A server can’t read your clipboard.

The side panel

⌘. opens the session’s side panel, with your snippets, the terminal theme and the text size. Choosing a theme there saves it on the host, so every device uses it.

Snippets

Snippets are commands you use often. Add them in Snippets, then:

• run one in a session from the side panel: it’s sent as typed, line by line;
• or make one a host’s (or a group’s) startup snippet, to run every time you sign in.

Local terminal

⌘L opens a shell on your own Mac in a new tab. It uses your login shell unless you choose another in Settings › Local terminal.

Themes

The app includes its own themes plus Solarized (light and dark), Dracula, Nord and Catppuccin. Set the default in Settings, where you can preview each one; a host or group can use its own.

Keyboard

• Option as Meta is off by default, so Option types characters such as # on a UK keyboard. Turn it on in Settings › Keyboard and scrolling if you use Emacs-style shortcuts.
• Scrollback keeps 10,000 lines by default; change it in the same place.
