Introduction:
iTerm is a full featured terminal emulation program written for OS X using
Cocoa. We are aiming at providing users with best command line experience
under OS X. The letter i represents a native Apple look
and feel of the program interface, and an emphasis on complete international
support. iTerm was merged from two projects, CTerminal and TerminalX, both
of which were based on JTerminal project. The current version is still in
beta stage. It is however very much functional and usable.

What's new
0.8.2 released 2/18/2006
iTerm is now a universal binary application! The new version also addresses
many bugs in the last version. We strongly encourage everybody who uses
0.8.1 to upgrade.
- Now a Universal Binary application, iTerm runs on Intel Macs natively.
- Added support of xterm mouse reporting, code provided by Geoff Reedy.
- Removed bouncing icon feature.
- Some speed improvements.
- Fixed "can't save settings" bug in 10.4.
- Fixed "find" function.
- Fixed "appending of spaces" bug.
- Fixed bugs of some mouse related actions.
- Other bug fixes and GUI adjustments as usual.
Notice:
Due a change of bookmark organizations introduced in 0.8.0, old bookmark settings are
no longer completely recognized. Only names, commands, directories, and shortcuts are migrated.
Display and terminal settings are not migrated. You have to re-enter these manually into the new version.
Version 0.8.0 comes with few keymapping/display/terminal profiles.
If you do not see them, please delete your iTerm.plist file in ~/Library/Preferences and
restart the program.
