Veil Terminal 0.2.0 — Native

Veil 0.2.0 — native host, familiar UI

• Replaces the shipped Electron runtime with AppKit and system WebKit while keeping Veil's React/xterm interface, tabs, splits and command-only customization.
• Preserves real login shells, existing config/profiles and bundled image/GIF, PiP and service helpers.
• Restores visible tabs and split focus, preserves shell/scrollback while moving panes, and fixes a terminal mode-query parser exception affecting Vim.
• Verified packaged tests cover typing/backspace, UTF-8, resizing, GIF-load echo, image-pane floating/return, fonts/defaults, PiP shell restoration and Vim open/return.

Apple Silicon; macOS 12+ build target (not runtime-tested on every supported OS).
Ad-hoc signed, not Apple-notarized. No Gatekeeper/quarantine bypass is included.
Save work and quit Veil before replacing the app. Existing config and profiles are
retained. If needed, reinstall the previous 0.1.4 DMG from Releases.

Known verification gaps

The maintainer explicitly waived physical Finder drag/redocking, external PiP
drag/minimize/close lifecycle, cold-launch file/folder/URL and source-independent
installation checks, plus final glass/opacity/installation inspection. These are
not reported as passed. The installer itself is checked separately. PiP remains
experimental; multi-display and app-specific behaviors may vary.

The first release test run exceeded the 100ms GIF-load echo budget once (102ms)
and timed out waiting for tool output while Finder was being exercised. The
isolated rerun passed (44ms maximum). These measurements are not a guarantee of
physical key-to-screen latency on every machine.

Install using the attached drag-to-Applications DMG or brew install --cask roxvihaan/tap/veil (use brew upgrade --cask roxvihaan/tap/veil for upgrades).
