I managed to finish off what I thought were the last few missing keyboard shortcuts during my lunch break today, but then realised that I'd missed two, but I was so excited an short of time that I decided to just go ahead and land the branch anyway! So there …
Further to my previous post I thought I'd post a quick update about how things are progressing. I mentioned in my previous post that I knew of several things that were not yet working in the Epic Refactor branch:
You might have seen my recent posts about the epic refactoring that has been going on in the Terminator codebase for the last few months. I think it's finally time that we get some more eyeballs on it, mainly so I can check that I haven't massively screwed something up …
Sometimes we get feature requests and merge proposals for features that are clearly useful for someone, but not appropriate for the general use cases. It's always unfortunate to have to say no to these folks, but we have a slim menu UI and I'm wary …
As mentioned in my earlier post about refactoring Terminator, I want to talk about some of the things I've learned about Python and programming in the last few months. If I were you I wouldn't place any great significance in anything I'm about to say - after all I'm a rank …

This has been another long gap release unfortunately, but we do have some goodies for you. Stephen Boddy is back with some excellent re-working of the UI relating to grouping terminals, Kees Cook brings us some clever work relating to window geometry and myself and others have been fixing bugs …
For about two years now I've been using a 127dpi laptop screen as my primary computer display. It's a comfortable thing to be looking at, and after much playing around I've settled on 6.5pt as my ideal application font size. No problems with that, right? Fontconfig says font sizes …
Yesterday I took delivery of a new Thinkpad USB keyboard because I've started putting my laptop up on a stand to be next to it's external monitor. In so doing I needed a keyboard and the ten quid Logitech was making me very sad, hence the Thinkpad one. If you've …
