What's fixed

v2.0.0 installers failed to launch WezTerm after install. This release fixes the root causes.

Launch / runtime fixes

  • format-tab-title no longer calls Pane methods on PaneInformation tables (was throwing get_foreground_process_name / has_unseen_output errors on every tab render)
  • Platform-aware default_prog — Windows no longer hardcodes /bin/zsh (which made the window exit immediately)
  • Safer pcall around run_child_process (git / pmset / hostname)
  • Default frontend is now OpenGL (WebGPU failed to start on some machines)
  • Restored missing Nerd Font glyphs in ui/icons.lua
  • Font names match Nerd Fonts 3.x (MonaspiceNe NF / JetBrainsMono NF) with font_dirs so they actually resolve

macOS installer

  • Now bundles WezTerm.app and installs it to /Applications
  • postinstall resolves the console user — config and fonts no longer land in /var/root
  • Fonts install to ~/Library/Fonts (CoreText), not ~/.local/share/fonts
  • Fixed bash 3.2 incompatibility (declare -A) that silently shipped zero fonts

Windows installer

  • Correct WezTerm download URL and more robust wezterm.exe lookup
  • Font file patterns match the actual .otf / .ttf files
