Thank you and the video. Although I have been working hard to improve performance and be satisfied with it, I have to say that what you mentioned is correct. After seeing your post, I have spent two or three hours testing several scenarios. One of them is keep pressing the down button in mc to traverse a folder with 168 items from top to bottom. WindTerm took 8.6 seconds, while MobaXterm/PuTTY only took 6.4 seconds (MobaXterm is based on PuTTY). It is worth mentioning that if I connect the power adapter to laptop, then WindTerm will take 7.3 seconds, while MobaXterm/PuTTY will still take 6.3 seconds. The above facts illustrate two points. One is that the processing is indeed slow, and the other is that WindTerm requires more computing resources. Compared with MobaXterm/Putty, WindTerm will try to do the extra following tasks when browsing:
For the right mouse button menu, the mouse message is also sent to the server. So you can see that while the menu is displayed, the item under the mouse in mc will be selected, but MobaXterm/PuTTY does not do this, they only transmit mouse click and double click events to the server for processing. But I don't think that these extra work will cause performance so much slower. I profiled and measured the performance of each function and found that most of the time was spent on painting. I will try to improve the performance in v2.0 to at least the same as MobaXterm/PuTTY. In addition, double-clicking is not handled correctly in mc, so it will be fixed too. |

Sorry to keep you waiting. It took time to improve some trivial functions. I just released WindTerm_2.0.0_Prerelease_1, and I believe that the rendering speed is still a bit slower due to the complexity of painting, but it is almost comparable to MobaXterm/PuTTY, please download and check. Thank you. |

firstly, moving through the lines of the midnight commander has become really fast. It's nice. As for the appearance of the context menu, I could not see that something has changed from the previous time. I would like to praise you for the "copy and paste" context menu item, it is sorely lacking in other ssh clients. Taking this opportunity, I want to know if it is even possible to copy and paste text in the console via "ctrl + c ctrl + v"? Just tried it, really ctrl + shift + x works Yes, I forgot to mention, in the prerelease, the tab did not work for me (on one of the 2 servers where I tried it), apparently, it broke, everything is reflected in the video. |

i work on windows 10 and using WindTerm_Win10_Conpty.exe . Windterm is fine, but when i work in midnight commander in linux session it so slow. I noticed that moving up and down mc is slow and even the context menu is slow. Nice, promising terminal, but I can't work in it yet. I attach a video in comparison with another terminal on the same remote machine
