Therm

Therm is a fork of iTerm2 made by pancake with minimalism in mind:

• Toggleable Notch guard on fullscreen windows (CMD+Shift+G)
• Better defaults (hidden tabs, scrollbars and window controls, dark theme, follow mouse, ...)
• Removed tons of barely-used and buggy features, gaining some performance and reducing size
• Fast fullscreen toggling, no animations (CMD+Enter)
• Resize splits with keystrokes (CMD+Shift+HJKL)
• Remove the AutoUpdates (Sparkle framework) and custom ANSI escape codes
• Search entry is now dark and toggleable with CMD+f
• Removed Brodcast, Tmux and SSH client functionality (buggy)
• Solid, non transparent and no blurry effects allowed. Faster, lighter and more readable.
• Added better default lfonts (Agave, Profont, Firacode, ...)
• Support AlwaysOnTop mode (CMD+Shift+F)
• Disable force-touch link previews, smart-paste and print-to-printer anoying features

Future

Plan is to continue removing features and optimizing the code to make Therm even faster and cleaner.

• Support PowerPC and x86-32 macOS

Contributions

No plans to sync changes from iTerm2, except for maybe the Metal backend or better emoji support, but the software renderer is really fast and I can probably write a cleaner utf support from scratch.

I really value and appreciate all the work done by the author of iTerm2, so feel free to check it out and use it if you prefer.
