• Multiple nested split panes
• Tabs on any side of the window
• Optional dockable window with a global spawn hotkey ("Quake console")
• Progress detection
• Notification on process completion
• Bracketed paste, multiline paste warnings
• Font ligatures
• Custom shell profiles
• Optional RMB paste and copy-on select (PuTTY style)

• SSH2 client with a connection manager
• X11 and port forwarding
• Automatic jump host management
• Agent forwarding (incl. Pageant and Windows native OpenSSH Agent)
• Login scripts

• Saved connections
• Readline input support
• Optional hex byte-by-byte input and hexdump output
• Newline conversion
