Screenshots

All captures use the classic Turbo Pascal palette. Every visible pane is a real PTY-backed terminal; the frames, menus and dialogs are drawn by the vendored Free Vision UI.

Four-pane workspace

A developer workspace split into four independent panes: an SSH session to a production host, a live system dashboard, a colored API log, and a Git history in a local checkout. Each pane keeps its own process, terminal state, focus and resize behavior.

Window classes

A window class captures how a terminal connects: a structured SSH target (host, user, port, key) or a free command, plus an optional command to run once connected. Classes are edited in the app and stored in ~/.superterm/superterm.ini.

Profiles

A profile is a named collection of windows and panes — a repeatable workspace. Activate one, save the current layout as a new profile, or mark one as the default that opens on startup.

Named detachable sessions

Detach a running workspace (Ctrl-Q d) and it keeps its shells and SSH connections alive in the background under a name. superterm --attach (or Ctrl-Q s) shows the picker to reattach, delete, or start a new session.

Session menu

The Sessions menu gathers detach, attach/manage, save, and the quick wizard. Accelerators and shortcuts are shown on the right of each entry.

Quick session wizard

The wizard launches one to four panes without editing a file. It asks for the number of panes, then a connection command for each and an optional command to run once connected. Use it for temporary workspaces; use a class or profile when the layout must be reproducible.

Color palette

The Options menu switches between the classic color palette, black-and-white, and monochrome, and toggles autosave and autorestore. The choice is persisted.

Refreshing these images

The screenshots are generated deterministically from the real TUI output, so they can be regenerated whenever the interface changes. Keep them free of passwords, private keys, tokens, host secrets, and personal command history before publishing.
