PlexusTerm 0.1.4 adds a file explorer for your computer, drag and drop into the terminal, saved AI conversations and import from ~/.ssh/config.

New

  • File explorer. A new sidebar tab, Explorer, browses the local disk and follows the folder of the local terminal: at once for shells that report it (OSC 7), otherwise every second on Linux and macOS. Create, rename, delete, change permissions and open files with the text editor of your choice or any program. It is the file tab shown for local terminals.
  • Drag and drop into the terminal. Drop a folder from the Explorer or SFTP on an empty command line to cd to it; anything else types its path at the cursor, quoted for the tab's shell (PowerShell and cmd included).
  • The terminal follows the file browser. Opening a folder in SFTP or the Explorer runs cd to it in its terminal, only when nothing is typed on the command line. Turn it off in Settings.
  • SFTP follows the remote folder without shell setup. When the remote shell does not report its folder, PlexusTerm reads it on the server over the same connection, without typing anything in your terminal (Linux servers).
  • Import from ~/.ssh/config. Import → From ~/.ssh/config in the Sessions panel turns each Host into a saved session with its host name, user, port, private key and ProxyJump jump hosts, after a preview. Importing again only adds new hosts.
  • Saved AI conversations. The AI chat lists your conversations so you can reopen or delete them; they are kept on disk unless you turn that off.
  • Attach without asking. Send a selection or attached files to the AI without typing a question; files dropped on the chat are attached to the next question.
  • Selection actions. The terminal's right-click menu has new actions for the selected text.
  • Starting folder. Settings choose the folder new local terminals start in.
  • Sidebar. Choose whether it opens as you left it, open or folded. Each panel explains itself from a help icon, and every tab is named in its tooltip. File lists hide sizes and dates unless Settings show them.

Fixes

  • An ai-chats.json that cannot be read is never written over.
  • Right click pastes again on macOS.
  • PowerShell paths are quoted safely when dropped or typed.
  • The help icon no longer covers the rows of the lists.
