Tile as many workspaces as you want

Workspace views are now leaves of the same split tree as terminal panes. A
new view takes half of the view you asked from, cut along its longer side, so
repeated opens spiral inward the way a tiling window manager places windows.
There is no limit on how many you open. Drag a view by its header onto another
view to dock it on that side or swap the two, drag a divider or use its arrow
keys to resize, zoom to see one view alone, and close to save it and leave its
terminals running. Every view has its own colour, and opening one works from
inside a view too: the sidebar footer, Alt+K, the tile action on a workspace
menu row, or "show ... beside" under a terminal that belongs to another
workspace. Views slide into place.

Menus instead of native selects

The terminal picker and the workspace row are QuickTerm's own menus. The
workspace menu shows each workspace's folder, marks the ones shown in another
view with that view's colour (choosing one focuses the view), and tiles any
other beside the current one from a hover action. Menus walk with the arrows
and typeahead, and hand the keyboard back to the terminal.

A workspace from the folder you are in

When the focused terminal sits outside the workspace folder, the sidebar
offers "workspace here: ". One click makes the folder a workspace
named after it, moves the terminal into it and switches there. A folder that
already is a workspace's root offers "open " and takes the terminal
along.

New terminals tile too

Alt+N cuts the focused pane along its longer side, and splits, closes, moves
and rebalances slide instead of jumping. Splitter drags never animate, and
prefers-reduced-motion turns the motion off.

Install: run QuickTerm-v3.9.0-Setup.exe, or unpack the zip. Both are listed in
SHA256SUMS.txt. The in-app updater in Settings > About picks this release up.
