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.

You know iTerm is a tool I use so often that I've taken its existence for granted. Thank you for all your hard work over the years. You've made a beautiful piece of software.

iTerm2 was my first choice when I joined a company where most of the people were doing all their stuff on the CLI and started my own journey into the CLI. I never looked back since then.

Thanks a lot for creating a wonderful piece of software which I use on a daily basis at work.

Love iTerm. If you guys ever integrated with 1Password I would be in heaven!

When i read "Password Manager" on the iterm2 V3 announcement page i hoped to read about 1Password integration! PLEASE PLEASE George Nachman - i would donate (again) for iTerm2! :)

George, longtime iTerm 2 user here - thanks for all your hard work; I can't count how many hours of productivity I've saved by using iTerm. I've given a donation in the past - and anyone else interested can see the big donate button on the site.

On donations, it's kind of ridiculous that the PayPal mobile checkout doesn't support 2FA: Your Security Key can't be used to log in here. But, you can still complete your purchase with PayPal by checking out on your computer. It also looks like it was designed in 2004 and never touched again. This same issue affects the Cydia store, and the only workaround there is to disable 2FA.

PayPal and ridiculous sounds about right

I love iTerm2, I keep up with the "current" beta versions, using them all day in production. I would love it if they'd make a "dark" titlebar version of the window chrome. My setup currently has windows without any titlebar at all (thanks to iTerm for that feature!), but it makes rearranging windows challenging. I look forward to trying out the newer features!

You can change the colour of the title bar in iTerm with an ansi code! I have different colours for all of my servers: http://i.imgur.com/mdF3XBz.png This will give you a title bar with RGB values 20, 20, 20: printf -- $'\033]6;1;bg;red;brightness;20\a\033]6;1;bg;green;brightness;20\a\033]6;1;bg;blue;brightness;20\a' Documentation: https://iterm2.com/documentation-escape-codes.html

I didn't know that. Thank you!

This looks great. Will applescript support be coming back? I'm using consular iterm to start and stop projects. https://github.com/achiu/consular-iterm Can anyone recommend another macro tool that can set up a bunch of processes running in tabs?

What you are looking for sounds a lot like TMUX + Bash (scripted tmux setup). Then you can run that inside of iTerm.

Tmux supports tabs and dynamic splits nicely via ncurses.

Also check out tmux ressurect [1] for saving tmux session persistence.

I'm ever a lurker here on HN, but I have to tell just how amazing it is that something you made affected the lives of so many people. The fact is, iTerm is arguably the most dependable piece of software on my computer and has been since I ever got a mac. So props to you!

Woah, they really should shout about this feature more.
