Release 0.5

4 August 2026 · Full changelog

Release 0.5 adds more control over the way a workspace looks and behaves. Local shell profiles, light and dark terminal themes and reusable highlighting profiles make sessions distinct, while workspace locking protects layouts that should not be rewritten automatically.

Terminal appearance for each environment

Light and dark application modes can use separate terminal colour schemes, with optional custom foreground and background colours. Desktop builds discover installed fonts, and split panes can show a configurable focus border so the target of typing and multi-execution remains clear.

Keyword rules can be collected into named highlighting profiles, exported and reused across hosts. Appearance mode selection also follows the operating-system theme more predictably.

Saved commands and safer pastes

Saved commands move into a searchable menu, and the command bar itself can be hidden when it is not needed. Multiline paste confirmation becomes an editable preview with line numbers, making it possible to remove a dangerous line before anything reaches the terminal.

Numbered tab shortcuts work across every pane in the window.

Workspaces and local shells

Workspaces can be locked so live tab and pane changes no longer overwrite the saved layout. An explicit save action records changes when you choose, while reusable local shell profiles store a program, arguments, starting directory and environment for future tabs.

SFTP actions are available directly from host and tab menus. For SSH servers that cannot support the usual terminal setup, Muxus detects console compatibility and adjusts the session without requiring a separate host profile.
