It's by design, I set some hints so it doesn't show up in Gnome Shell's overview mode or alt-tab selector. A side-effect of that is that it doesn't get an app-menu shown. Btw. really good work, i really like terminix and use it for some time now, but with quake mode (it is nice that there is no keybinding because it works really nice with wayland) I can remove guake from my system and use terminix for everything even on wayland. Thx Thanks, good to know it is working on Wayland because the quake mode was very iffy there due to the fact you can't globally position a window in Wayland.

It is written in D using the GtkD library. More information about Terminix is available on github here https://github.com/gnunn1/terminix. The following features were added in this release: - Quake mode support - Password manager - Custom hyperlinks - Advanced paste dialog - Set a default session name - Quick session switcher - Experimental trigger support I'm always looking for people who are interested in contributing, hence my announcing the new releases here.

It could work nicely with `if` and `else` tags + attributes. A simple programming language that's SDLang-compliant would definitely be interesting! I think SDLang is underrated and I hope it will find more adopters in the future. JSON is useful and used all over the place. But it has shortcomings that are probably due to the fact that it was never meant to be used as widely as it is today (i.e. outside JS). The lack of comments is a big minus.

I think the difference is that the solution is scoped to only those objects that you chose to use GC on, rather than GC everything by default. Because the GC is limited to a small set of objects and is done in a controlled manner, this avoids unpredictable pauses and problems with interop with external libraries.
