Final Term **AWOL**

Last Updated on July 22, 2020

Final Term is billed as a new breed of terminal emulator.

Final Term is an open source terminal emulator written solely in Vala, an object-oriented programming language with a self-hosting compiler that generates C code.

Final Term’s source code is precision engineered with a thoroughly object oriented approach and a clean model—view—controller separation, maximizing maintainability and extensibility.

Features include:

• Hardware-accelerated user interfaces
• Semantic text menus
• Smart command completion
• GUI terminal controls
• Omnipotent key bindings
• Support for 24-bit RGB terminal colours
• Text Reflow
• Drop Down
• Multiple terminals in one window – split terminal horizontally and/or vertically. Split terminals allow a flexible arrangement of terminals by recursively splitting existing ones either horizontally or vertically.
• Combine split terminals with tabs. Any arrangement of tabs and split views that you can draw on paper can be realized with a few mouse clicks.
• Emulates zsh’s precmd and preexec functions, directly extracting the executed command from bash’s history
• Collapse buttons – they also double as visual indicators of the associated command’s exit status
• Script in any language simply through escape sequences
• Terminal commands – shell commands that are executed by Final Term
• Color schemes
• Keyboard shortcuts
• Translations
