Terminal

To open a Terminal tab, click Tools > New Terminal. The terminal opens in the directory of the folder. Multiple Terminal tabs can be open simultaneously.

In the Terminal tab, click the Show prompt indicators on scrollbar icon to enable indicators on the scrollbar to navigate command history. Click on an indicator to quickly navigate back to the command.

Scrollback

Each terminal keeps up to 10,000 lines of scrollback by default. To change the number, open Settings > Terminal and select Scrollback Lines. More lines use more memory for each open terminal.

Find in terminal output

By default, press Ctrl+F (Cmd+F on macOS) to search terminal output, or right-click the terminal and select Find. Find searches the focused pane’s current screen and retained scrollback. To keep more output, increase Scrollback Lines in Settings > Terminal.

  • Press Enter or Shift+Enter to go to the next or previous match.
  • Click Aa to match case.
  • Click Clear text to empty the Find input.
  • Press Esc to close Find and return to the terminal.

The total shows 1000+ at 1,000 or more matches. If you select a different pane, Find closes.

To send Ctrl+F to the shell instead, set Ctrl+F in Terminal to Send to shell in Settings > Terminal. This setting is not available on macOS.

Shells

You can open the Terminal tab with different shells. To open a terminal with a specific shell, click Tools > Shells and select a shell.

By default, a terminal opens in the system default shell. You can change the default shell in Settings.

Companion terminal

Companion terminals are terminals that open in a separate window. To open a companion terminal, click Tools > Companion Terminal.
