Overview

Improve mobile terminal behavior during high-volume output by keeping bottom-following stable and giving users a quick way back to live output.

  • Added: ...
  • Updated: terminal output scrolling to preserve user position or stick to the bottom intentionally
  • Removed: ...
  • Fixed: mobile terminal sessions getting stranded away from the bottom during fast output

Changes Made

  • Track xterm scroll position inside the WebView and report whether the viewport is at the bottom.
  • Preserve the current viewport when the user has scrolled up to read history.
  • Continue auto-following new output when the terminal was already at the bottom before the write.
  • Add a native floating scroll-to-bottom button that appears only when the terminal is away from live output.
  • Attempt to enable xterm WebGL rendering when available, with a quiet fallback to the existing renderer if WebGL is unsupported.

Related Issues

Screenshots / Demos

Not included; this needs an iOS terminal session with high-volume SSH output to verify interactively.

Validation run locally:

  • npx eslint app/tabs/sessions/terminal/Terminal.tsx passes with existing warnings only.
  • git diff --check passes.
  • npx tsc --noEmit still fails on existing repository-wide TypeScript errors outside this change.

Checklist

  • Code follows project style guidelines
  • Supports mobile and desktop UI/app (if applicable)
  • I have read Contributing.md

* fix: register physical Tab key on iPadOS/iOS hardware keyboards (#14)

The native module only registered Shift+Tab but not bare Tab, so iOS
intercepted it for UI focus navigation. Register an unmodified Tab
UIKeyCommand with wantsPriorityOverSystemBehavior and handle both
Tab and Shift+Tab in the same JS branch.

Fixes Termix-SSH/Support#557

* fix: pass jumpHosts, forceKeyboardInteractive, and overrideCredentialUsername to terminal connection (#15)

These fields were defined on SSHHost but omitted from the terminal
hostConfig passthrough. Without jumpHosts the backend cannot route
through jump servers; without forceKeyboardInteractive hosts that
require keyboard-interactive auth fail silently; without
overrideCredentialUsername shared credentials use the wrong username.
