Release 0.13

24 October 2026 ยท Full changelog

Release 0.13 makes everyday work quicker. Settings can be searched, the file browser selects several files to download or delete together, and a tab can close by itself when its shell exits. On macOS, Cmd+Left and Cmd+Right jump to the start and end of the line, and Option+Left and Option+Right jump by word in split panes too.

Searching settings

Finding a setting meant knowing which section holds it. Search settings, above the section list, finds a setting by its name or by what it is about, such as dark mode, keepalive, ctrl+d or osc52. Results list as you type, each with its section and heading, and choosing one opens the section, scrolled to the setting and outlined for a moment. Ctrl+F (Cmd+F on macOS) moves to the search field from anywhere in Settings; in a narrow window it sits above the section picker.

See settings.

Selecting several files

The file browser now selects rows as a file manager does: Ctrl + click (Cmd + click on macOS) adds a row or takes it out again, Shift + click selects a range, Ctrl+A (Cmd+A) selects the whole folder, and Esc or a click below the rows clears the selection. The toolbar shows how many rows are selected.

downloads every selected file. The desktop app and Chromium browsers ask once for a folder and save them all there; a file of the same name already in the folder is kept and the new one is numbered, as in report (1).txt. Firefox and Safari save the files to their downloads folder. The row menu of a selected row downloads or deletes the whole selection, Del (Cmd+Backspace on macOS) deletes it too, and deleting asks once for all of them.

See selecting several files.

Closing a tab when its shell exits

Leaving a shell with exit, logout or Ctrl+D kept the tab open with Press any key to reconnect. With Close the tab when its shell exits, a new setting under Settings โ†’ Behavior that is off by default, a local, SSH or Telnet tab closes instead when its shell exits by itself with status 0. A shell that exits with another status, a failed or lost connection, a serial console and a pinned tab keep the tab with the usual prompt, and a tab with unsaved remote files asks first. Backups keep the setting.

See behavior settings.

Line and word jumps on macOS

Cmd+Left and Cmd+Right did nothing at a prompt. They now jump to the start and end of the line, as in VS Code and Ghostty, by sending Ctrl+A and Ctrl+E, which bash, zsh, fish and the CLIs of most network devices understand. They are the Jump to line start and Jump to line end commands in the keyboard sheet, where they can be rebound, or cleared to pass the keys through unchanged. On Windows and Linux, where Home and End already do this, the commands have no shortcut until one is recorded.

Option+Left and Option+Right also moved focus between panes, so with two panes side by side a word jump towards the other pane focused it instead. On macOS, focus now moves with Cmd+Option and an arrow, as in iTerm2, and Option+Left and Option+Right always jump by word. Windows and Linux keep Alt and an arrow.

See protocols and tabs and panes.

Smaller improvements and fixes

  • A file dragged out of the file browser more than two minutes after its folder was listed downloads again, instead of failing and, on macOS, leaving an empty file in Finder.
  • On macOS, Muxus โ†’ About Muxus opens Settings โ†’ About, with links to GitHub, the docs, the release notes and the issue tracker, instead of the bare system About panel.

This release also moves to Electron 45 and refreshes Fastify, TanStack Query, React, zustand and development tools.
