Uniterm2 v0.14
Pre-release
Pre-release
In this version:
- Add a way to quick-launch a new shell from specified directory. You may just drag the folder icon to the Uniterm executable file, or providing the only shell argument is a directory, then Uniterm will launch the directory you want with the default shell.
- Add a way to launch shell with raised privileges in Windows platform (UAC). If you prefix the shell parameter with
sudo
while launching a new shell, or justsudo
without any shell specified (for default shell), you can launch a new shell with administrators' privileges. You may be asked to give Uniterm permissions to modify your computer if your Windows are configured to prompt (and it should be system default) once you launch the shell. - Uniterm now ships with a Mononoki font patched with Nerd Fonts, instead of the powerline symbols, which can provide more symbols to use/decorate the shell display. To use this font, just define the mononoki inside the font option within the config file.
- Added a
--isolated
option, which is used to launch a dedicated Uniterm instance. At first this is designed to deal with UAC, but now it is not necessary as we got another easier way to do it (see above). Thus this option is rarely used but we keep this for future unknown edge use cases. - As all dependencies has been updated to latest, Uniterm now supports the latest ConPTY API and using it default if supported behind the scenes (via node-pty module).
