Install

Download the latest install or stand alone version from releases. Note that the installer seems to hang for a while before it brings up the User Account Control popup in Windows. This is normal. If you wait it should work fine...just takes some time.

Roadmap

• History of text/bytes sent - Keep history of last 10 or so list of bytes sent from the bottom text input box and have a drop down menu to allow a user to select from the previous list.
• Improve ANSI support - Currently only properly supports forground / background color escapes. Could use something like https://crates.io/crates/vte or https://crates.io/crates/vtparse
