OpenTerminal Changelog

v1.0.15 - 2026-09-20

Custom terminal background image: Settings → Theme → Background image lets you use any local image as the terminal background, with 10%–100% image opacity control; removing the image restores the solid background
Duplicate-name warning in the theme editor: creating or renaming a theme that collides with a builtin or another custom theme now shows a hint (saving is still allowed)
Theme editor seed colors are normalized; invalid color values can no longer enter custom themes
Corrupted custom theme colors are auto-repaired to defaults with a warning logged
The selected item in the settings dialog's left navigation is now white, matching the contrast of unselected items (fixes unreadable blue text on dark backgrounds)
New background-image and opacity controls ship with localized strings in all four languages (zh-CN / zh-TW / en / ja)
Added freeze-duration probes for the renderer and main process to help diagnose future "not responding" reports

v1.0.14 - 2026-09-20

Fixed silent corruption of uploaded files larger than ~250KB (size looked correct but the content had scrambled bytes)
Fixed a remote file-handle leak on every download and a leftover SFTP channel after every transfer; a malformed server response no longer crashes the whole app
Uploading over an existing file now asks for confirmation; partially failed multi-file deletes are now reported
Permission editor fixes: files with unknown mode no longer get a stray chmod 000; an empty GID is no longer replaced by the new UID; setuid / setgid / sticky bits are shown and preserved
chmod / chown now time out instead of spinning forever
Fixed Chinese output over SSH turning into mojibake (multi-byte chars split across network chunks)
Fixed command history being lost or corrupted after accepting a Tab completion
Fixed editing keys (Ctrl+U / Ctrl+W, …) being written into command history (the "two commands merged" entries)
cd ~/dir and cd $HOME/... are now remembered; new terminals restore them
URL click ranges inside lines containing CJK characters no longer shift; degenerate sizes are no longer sent when the window is tiny
SSH sessions report the real exit code; ZMODEM timeouts no longer dump garbage into the terminal or the log
A failed session restore no longer disables snapshot saving for the whole run
Monitor CPU / network history charts now redraw live; polling stops while the SSH workspace is hidden
Broadcast: closing one pane of a split no longer drops the other from broadcast targets; unchecking one target no longer clears the rest
Connection failures show the real reason; double-clicks no longer open duplicate sessions
Fixed "Close others / Close right" skipping tabs
Language switches apply from the first frame; active-tab text adapts after a theme switch (no more unreadable labels on light themes)
The private-key path field no longer claims to be a server-side path
File drops can no longer navigate the window; external links are limited to http(s) / ftp; IPC is sender-checked
Stored passwords are only used for password-auth bookmarks (key-auth bookmarks no longer fall back to sending a password)
Connections / known hosts are written atomically — a crash can no longer wipe them
A crashed renderer has all of its sessions and logs reclaimed automatically
A corrupted custom theme no longer prevents the app from starting
Update-channel publishing is atomic — a failed publish can no longer break auto-update

v1.0.13 - 2026-09-20

Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English and Japanese, switchable in Settings → System → Language; applies instantly and persists
The whole app is translated: settings pages, workspace, terminal context menu and search, SSH connections, file panel, system monitor, command panel, tray menu and the close prompt
antd's built-in component texts (empty states, pagination, …) follow the interface language
The changelog now ships inside the app, so it works offline instead of relying on a network endpoint
The changelog is multi-language: shown in the active interface language, falling back to Simplified Chinese for versions without a translation
Fixed "Close button → Ask every time" doing nothing (it was silently rewritten to "Minimize to tray")
Highlight rules are no longer silently dropped over shape problems: string priorities, 0/1 booleans and a missing foreground colour are repaired, and unknown fields are preserved
Settings parse warnings are written to settings-warnings.log so a broken config is traceable
The terminal toolbar is configurable (Settings → Rendering & behaviour): open working directory (on by default), session-log recording, open logs folder
"Open working directory" opens the terminal's current folder in the file manager, tracked live through cd
The global show/hide shortcut is now press-to-record: focus the field and hit the combo; Esc cancels, Backspace clears; a modifier or function key is required so plain typing is never hijacked
"Input suggestions" and "Record command history" now default to off (existing installs are reset once; later manual changes are never overwritten)
Fixed the settings dialog content column not scrolling (an antd v6 container class rename); the theme page no longer shows a second nested scrollbar
UI polish: render-mode and language pickers are joined segments, with corrected text contrast on the selected segment

scripts/sync-changelog.cjs merges RELEASE_NOTES.en.md into this file at release time. The content ships inside the app; the About tab shows the changelog for the active interface language and falls back to Simplified Chinese for versions that have no translation yet.

v1.0.12 - 2026-09-20

Light-theme contrast fixes

Tab bar and sidebar colours now derive from the theme background's luminance: on light themes the tab bar stays in the terminal's own colour family (no more muddy grey strip), while dark themes are unchanged
Fixed tabs rendering as dark blocks with white text on light themes: tab surfaces and labels now come from theme variables — inactive tabs are light with dark text, and active-tab text is darkened automatically
The settings dialog now follows light themes throughout: labels, descriptions, tables and palette text on the font, highlight and theme pages track the theme foreground and stay readable

Stability

Session-log writes now use a per-file buffer with a single drain loop: burst output is merged and stays ordered, with no unbounded queue growth
Settings writes are serialized: changing the close action from the tray no longer clobbers a concurrent save from the settings UI
