Interesting, but Tab completion seems broken: cd Foosball/ cat r Selecting text (on Firefox) doesn't seem to work either.

It seems to be intentional. It works if you deactivate JavaScript.

The effects during typing are a little distracting. Do you plan to allow the usual string navigation shortcuts that my hands are apparently unable to type without? (^-a ^-e ^-k, etc.) ?

Yeah, the one thing that made me click away from the site was the particle effects when typing. It really broke that 'suspension of disbelief' moment for me. I know it is not a real terminal, but if you are going to go to the effort of making people feel they are interacting with a terminal, then don't break that illusion with fancy chrome.
