Unfortunately, it was left unmaintained in 2021 when the new maintainer, [Sergios][1] Anestis Kefalidis (also a developer of Thunar file manager), took over the responsibility. + +And, since Sergios took over the project, the versioning scheme has changed. After consultation with the community, Thunar’s old versioning scheme was adopted. + +For instance, version 1.1.x will be the development release, and 1.2.0 will be the next major upgrade. + +Now, with the release of Xfce Terminal 1.0.0, a number of exciting new features have been packed in. + +### New Features + +Some new features in Xfce Terminal 1.0.0 include: + + * Improved customization options + * Overlay scrollbar support + * Command-line option improvements + * More use of XfceTitledDialog + + + +#### Better Customization Options + +As with many application updates these days, Xfce Terminal 1.0.0 includes plenty of new customization options. Perhaps my favorite, the image background feature now has a ‘Fill’ style option. This is accompanied by the ability to temporarily disable the unsafe paste dialog, which has also been revamped. + +Finally, XFCE Terminal has also become one of the first apps to support the new XFCE shortcuts editor. As a result, users no longer need to dive into configuration files, instead of being given a simple UI to use. + +![][2] + +With so many new customization options, I’m sure many people would be happy with a release containing just these. But alas! The developer has managed to squeeze in yet more exciting new features, the next of which is the improved command-line arguments. + +#### Better Command Line Arguments + +With this release, ‘–tab’ and ‘–window’ command line arguments have been fixed to be more intuitive. This fixes a rather [longstanding bug][3] in XFCE Terminal that has been known for almost 6 years. + +Despite the long wait, it has now been fixed. Better late than never, eh? + +Anyway, it is always great to see bugs squashed with every new release, and this trend continues here. + +#### More Use Of Xfce-Specific Widgets + +Although I’m sure many users will probably see this as a downgrade, XFCE Terminal’s use of more XFCE-specific widgets brings numerous advantages. While it does mean more dependencies for non-XFCE users, it means better integration with XFCE. + +It is safe to say that most of the Xfce terminal users stick to the same desktop environment. So, this change should result in greater consistency and UX improvements. + +#### Other Changes + +Other changes in this release include: + + * ‘Scrolling on ouput’ preference improvements + * Right-click behavior customization options + * Code reworking for a smaller codebase + + + +For a full list of features, feel free to refer to the [release notes][4]. The release notes also mention future plans for the next major release, v1.2.0. + +### Wrapping Up + +Overall, Xfce Terminal 1.0.0 is looking to be a great release and goes to show the dedication of its new maintainer. + +If you want to try Xfce Terminal 1.0.0, it should be landing in your distribution’s repositories in the following weeks, if not already. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://news.itsfoss.com/xfce-terminal-1-0-0-release/ + +作者:[Jacob Crume][a] +选题:[lujun9972][b] +译者:[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对:[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译,[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]: https://news.itsfoss.com/author/jacob/ +[b]: https://github.com/lujun9972 +[1]: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCu8-J-XWcXQhoCopBiJ5-uw/videos +[2]: data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyBoZWlnaHQ9IjUwOSIgd2lkdGg9Ijc4MCIgeG1sbnM9Imh0dHA6Ly93d3cudzMub3JnLzIwMDAvc3ZnIiB2ZXJzaW9uPSIxLjEiLz4= +[3]: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12926 +[4]: http://users.uoa.gr/~sdi1800073/sources/xfce_blog12.html
