I’ve been re-examining the basics since the Spring to get us out of the beta and become a “fully grown” Terminal Click. Although I wanted to do a serious performance pass (I feel like a broken record) my current customers are clamoring for general text selection and copying to the clipboard first. Turns out most folks don’t need their terminals to compete in NASCAR. TUI Mouse Events https://terminal.click/posts/2026/06/tui-mouse-events/ Tue, 30 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://terminal.click/posts/2026/06/tui-mouse-events/ Dear beta testers, I’ve just shipped the latest version of Terminal Click: TC v0.8.9. Recall that we are re-examining the basics to get us out of the beta and become a “fully grown” Terminal Click. Although I wanted to do a serious performance pass, people were clamoring for mouse clicks, scroll, etc. to work inside TUIs first. Ask and you shall (usually!) receive :) P.S. The Windows build comes out by the end of the week. TUI Stability https://terminal.click/posts/2026/06/tui-stability/ Tue, 02 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://terminal.click/posts/2026/06/tui-stability/ Dear beta testers, I’ve just shipped the latest version of Terminal Click: TC v0.8.8. Recall that we are re-examining the basics to get us out of the beta and become a “fully grown” Terminal Click. I know it’s start of June, but this is still technically the build for May. Forgive the delay! This version requires a brand new database. Do not copy the old one over. macOS beta testers should run the following command before anything else: UTF-8 Support https://terminal.click/posts/2026/04/utf-8-support/ Fri, 24 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://terminal.click/posts/2026/04/utf-8-support/ Dear beta testers, I’ve just shipped the latest version of Terminal Click: TC v0.8.5. Recall that we are re-examining the basics to get us out of the beta and become a “fully grown” Terminal Click. Unicode Rendering Terminal Click can now render extended latin, nerd fonts, emojis and CJK. Here’s a demo showing off some CJK glyphs: Your browser does not support the video tag. As usual, whatever works on macOS will work on Windows and Linux too! Spring Release https://terminal.click/posts/2026/03/spring-release/ Tue, 24 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://terminal.click/posts/2026/03/spring-release/ Dear beta testers, Happy Spring! Many of us in the industry are in a constant state of upheaval, so I hope my project update offers a fun little distraction. I’ve just shipped the latest version of Terminal Click: TC v0.8.4. I’ve been re-examining the basics to get us out of the beta and become a “fully grown” Terminal Click, sooner rather than later. Indeed, I was tempted to label this release TC v0. Infrastructure Gains https://terminal.click/posts/2025/12/infrastructure-gains/ Mon, 01 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://terminal.click/posts/2025/12/infrastructure-gains/ Dear beta testers, I’m mortified to give you a second update related mostly to IT infrastructure, as opposed to pure systems programming goodness. Bear with me for one more blog post! After this I’ll feel secure in marching ahead to wrap up the promised feature of better UTF-8 support (while also closing down most of the current GitHub issues.) So what’s been going on? Notarized Apple Builds Thanks to a beta tester, who valiantly persisted in asking me for months, I’ve managed to notarize Terminal Click for Mac users! The Spooky Machinery behind Indie Shops https://terminal.click/posts/2025/10/the-spooky-machinery-behind-indie-shops/ Fri, 31 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://terminal.click/posts/2025/10/the-spooky-machinery-behind-indie-shops/ Dear Clickity Clackity Club, Happy Halloween! Being an indie dev is rather frightening indeed, not because my work as a terminal author became tricky, but because running a business requires heightened awareness for cybersecurity. I realize security is a slippery slope; I have the power to channel my imagination into ever-soaring levels of suspicion and paranoia. These days, however, a healthy dose of fear is actually warranted!

Open for Business! https://terminal.click/posts/2025/07/open-for-business/ Fri, 18 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://terminal.click/posts/2025/07/open-for-business/ This is my shortest post ever. Terminal Click is now literally open for business. Open Beta Delay https://terminal.click/posts/2025/07/open-beta-delay/ Tue, 15 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://terminal.click/posts/2025/07/open-beta-delay/ Dear Fans of Terminal Click, Everything I said in the Open Beta announcement remains accurate, except that I’m behind for a day or two. The beta build is ready. However, I’m wrapping up infrastructure necessary to accept payments and deliver binaries. I’m porting over the system I wrote for selling conference tickets at Handmade Cities, so it’s not too complicated (it’s just work taking me longer than one night.) I apologize for the delay… and please don’t ask me to vibe code payment code.
