One of the best mac apps in existence but holy jeebus is the naming a mess: - It's called iTerm2 Version 3 now, rather than iTerm3 - It's called iTerm2 Version 3 now, but the actual app version is 2.9
The app's name is iTerm2. Version numbers have to increase lexicographically, so the version 3 beta is called 2.9. I'm open to suggestions :)

#202(author here). I pushed out a promotion today to let users know about the new version before auto-updating everyone. It breaks backward compatibility with applescript, so it'll be a rough upgrade for some folks. I'd love to hear any thoughts on how to make this less painful. My first experiment with in-app advertising (promoting the beta version through a popup dialog) has gone well, with a 31% click-through rate, an…
I literally just made an account on here since I never normally comment just to say thank you to you for all your work on iTerm. I'm especially happy about the issue I was having with iTerm2 windows not resizing correctly but the beta seems to have changed this to work flawlessly, it used to not fit correctly to the borders of the screen height nor width, but it works great now. So thank you once again.

#203Iterm2 was one of those things I was not expecting to miss so much when I switched to a Linux desktop. There's something about the look and feel of text that I'm used too. Don't get me wrong, there's good terminals for Linux, but I think iterm2 was the best. I'd gladly pay for a Linux port.
Yeah, font rendering is great out of the box on OS X. However, you can also get that on Linux, using Infinality. Check it out. :)

#205Earlier quoted context omitted.
> Customizability ends up being pretty important for serious developers who are always in the terminal. Ironically, I would say customizability ends up being pretty important for serious developers attempting to avoid working. I can't say my terminal itself—as opposed to the shell—requires any serious modifications at all. (I rewire the left option key and color schemes, and that's about it.)
if you dont heavily optimize your workflow (in this context that would mean improve your shell setup), you can hardly call yourself a "serious developer"

George, huge thanks for your work. Please consider putting iTerm2 on the App Store for a couple of bucks (in addition to providing it for free on your site).

If you're interested in the regressions iTerm2 has compared to Terminal.app, the two I've noticed are: - Terminal.app will focus the tab triggering "prompt before closing if there are jobs running besides" and name the job that's running. iTerm2 always ask "Quit iTerm2?" and leave you to hunt down which tab is preventing it from being closed. - Triple-clicking in Terminal.app will select from the previous \n to the n…
In iTerm2, toggle "Triple-click selects full wrapped lines" in the Pointer tab in Preferences.
