  • SyncTERM v1.9rc4 released!

    From Deuce@VERT to All on Tuesday, August 04, 2026 22:53:49
    This is the fourth release candidate for SyncTERM v1.9. If there are no bugs, reported in the next week or two, this will become the official SyncTERM release.

    To that end, if you use SyncTERM, please try the rc4 release, and report any bugs you find. If you're not sure if something is a bug, open a support ticket and ask.

    Changes since 1.9rc3:
    Add LF Expand option to dialing directory
    Fix some PBM/PPM parsing errors
    Fix several Sixel rendering and fragmented-input issues
    Fix pixel graphics redraw when images start partway through a character cell Fix Prestel key mappings
    Fix saving the custom video mode column count
    Fix shifted navigation key and Alt+Delete handling
    Fix mouse motion reporting when no button is pressed

    Bugs and Support tickets (and feature requests) are tracked on the SourceForge page at http://sf.net/p/syncterm/ if you create a SourceForge account, you can be notified when I reply/fix bugs, and it really helps in case I need to ask follow-up questions, so please consider making that account and logging in before opening a ticket. That said, I would rather have bug reports as
    anonymous than not know about issues.

    This is the fifth release candidate for SyncTERM v1.9. If there are no bugs, reported in the next week or two, this will become the official SyncTERM release.

    To that end, if you use SyncTERM, please try the rc5 release, and report any bugs you find. If you're not sure if something is a bug, open a support ticket and ask.

    Changes since 1.9rc4:
    Fix fullscreen aspect ratio on Wayland and Quartz
    Fix capture menu to indicate append not overwrite for ASCII and Raw
