Terminal Switcher v1.0.0
The debut release of Terminal Switcher — a lightweight macOS menu-bar app
that lists every open Apple Terminal window, labeled by project, and jumps to
any of them in one click.
Highlights
- Menu-bar dropdown of all open Terminal windows, labeled by project.
- Always-on-top floating panel for heavy switching sessions.
- New Terminal Window and New Window in Project ▸ to open shells anywhere.
- Start at Login toggle and manual Check for Updates.
- No Dock icon, tiny footprint, and no network activity except a manual update check.
