ISO third level keys were not working. That prevented some inputting important characters (like pipe `|` and caret `^`) on some keyboard layouts. Instead of parsing the user-agent string to find the users os, we now look into the `platform` attribute of the `navigator` object. Removed the hijacking of the command key `⌘` on Mac OS as the `Alt` key on other systems.
xterm.js
Xterm.js is a full xterm clone, written in JavaScript.
It is used at SourceLair to help people develop their applications in their browsers.
Xterm.js supplies a modular, event-based interface that lets developers build addons and themes on top of it.
Demo
To launch the demo simply run:
npm install
npm start
Then open http://0.0.0.0:3000 in a web browser.
Addons
Addons are JavaScript modules that attach functions to the Terminal prototype to extend its functionality. There are a handful available in the main repository in the addons directory, you can even write your own (though they may break when the internals of xterm.js change across versions).
To use an addon, just include the JavaScript file after xterm.js and before the Terminal object has been instantiated. The function should then be exposed on the Terminal object:
<script src="node_modules/src/xterm.js"></script>
<script src="node_modules/addons/linkify/linkify.js"></script>
var xterm = new Terminal();
// init code...
xterm.linkify();
