✨ New Feature: Smart Terminal Selection 💡

The Problem

Users with multiple terminal applications (iTerm2, Warp, Terminal, etc.) had no way to choose their preferred terminal in earlier versions.

The Solution

Intelligent first-launch setup that detects available terminals and asks once:

• 🔍 Auto-detects available terminals on first launch
• 🎯 Shows selection dialog if 2+ terminals found
• 💾 Remembers your choice for all future launches
• 🤫 Stays silent if only 1 terminal (no annoying dialog)
• 🔄 Always changeable via macos/set-terminal.sh

Supported Terminals

• iTerm2 ⭐ (recommended)
• Warp
• Alacritty
• Terminal (system default)
