Terminaux v8.3 – The Sunshine Blogger Award 2nd Edition

The Sunshine Blogger Award is a community award that selects bloggers as nominees who bring positivity and inspiration in their posts. We have been selected as a nominee for The Sunshine Blogger Award for the second time. As a result, we’ve made a new version of Terminaux.

Terminaux v8.3 is now available as of today, and we are so excited to announce that it’s a special release for the Sunshine Blogger Award nomination. This version of Terminaux includes pane-specific keybindings and pixel-accurate progress indicators.

We have also added more improvements to the markup parser to handle complex formatting more properly. The markup parser has also seen a new feature, which is the link tag. This lets your console applications display hyperlinks on your console that you can click.

You can see the 2nd nomination announcement of The Sunshine Blogger Award below:

We promise that Terminaux 8.4 will be one of the most exciting releases that will bring support for FreeBSD when it comes to audio feedback for keypresses, and we expect that May 26th will be the final release date, though we may release it earlier as a reward for all of you, especially our readers!

To learn more about this version of Terminaux, please consult the Aptivi Newsroom article.

Aptivi Blog nominated to The Sunshine Blogger Award for the second time!

Aptivi Blog has been nominated to The Sunshine Blogger Award for the second time in a row during April 2026! This is a result of our blog being recognized by our audience, and we have reached more than 100,000 total blog views earlier! When April started, we’ve been nominated to this award for the first time, which sets a big milestone for our blog.

The Sunshine Blogger Award is a community award that selects bloggers as nominees who bring positivity and inspiration in their posts.

Here’s an exclusive message from the blog operator:

When April started, Victoria Kenanda nominated me and my blog for The Sunshine Blogger Award, and that was something I really appreciate. Now, I have been nominated again for The Sunshine Blogger Award on April 11th, which was totally unexpected! Thank you so much, Lynn Pernezny, for nominating my blog in the awards! It’s really grateful how my blog was recognized, especially as it crossed 100,000 total views since March 2019. You can check out her awesome blog under So Many Dishes.

Guidelines

In order to participate, you’ll need to follow the below guidelines:

1. Display the award’s official logo somewhere on your blog.
2. Thank the person who nominated you.
3. Provide a link to your nominator’s blog.
4. Answer your nominator’s questions.
5. Nominate up to eleven bloggers.
6. Ask your nominees eleven questions.
7. Notify your nominees by commenting on at least one of their blog posts.

Answers

1. Q: What was the subject of your first blog post?
   A: Great question! When March 2019 came, my first blog post was about welcoming people to my blog. Unfortunately, during the cleanup process of my blog in 2025 as part of a rebrand, I’ve removed all posts that were made before 2021 to remedy the disk space issues (I only have 1.2 GB left now) for future blog posts, and I had to move the introductory page to Aptivi’s main website here. So, the current answer is “Alleged late Beta build for Midtown Madness found (part 1)“.
2. Q: What is one food that is always in your refrigerator?
   A: Rice meals. Always.
3. Q: It’s a special occasion. How will you celebrate?
   A: It depends on what an occasion is about and on our plans. For example, on my birthdays, I’ll celebrate it with cake, sweets, and a bunch of Instagram selfies where my followers wish me happy birthday. And the place will be either inside or outside, depending on the plan.
4. Q: What is something you are proud of?
   A: Nitrocid and Terminaux.
5. Q: Who is someone who had a positive impact on your life?
   A: My best school friends. They brought fun and chaos.
6. Q: What’s a random fact about you?
   A: Vicky asked this question earlier, so I’ll answer it again. Loving technology.
7. Q: Time and money are no object. What’s your ideal trip?
   A: I’d plan a trip to several countries as a tourist. Türkiye, The Netherlands, India, and so on.
8. Q: What advice would you give to a student about to graduate from high school?
   A: Good question! My advice would be to focus on their studies, to study hard, to stay away from distractions, to manage time properly, and to be positive and hopeful that they’d succeed.
9. Q: What’s your favorite song?
   A: I have no favorite song at the moment. But, if we’re talking about EDM, Darude’s Sandstorm is my absolute favorite.
10. Q: Did you play a sport growing up? What was it?
    A: Yeah. Basketball.
11. Q: You’re invited to my house for dinner. What should I cook?
    A: Spanish paella.

Questions

1. What is your favorite sports team?
2. How do you deal with the toughest moments?
3. Do you prefer shopping in malls or in small stores?
4. What do you think about smartwatches (Galaxy Watch, Apple Watch, and so on)?
5. What would you plan to do over the weekends?
6. What was a blog post you’re proud of the most?
7. Do you like jogging or walking outside?
8. What do you think about smart houses?
9. Do you prefer modern design or classic design?
10. What thing would you plan to purchase if time and money weren’t obstacles?
11. Who’s your favorite blogger that you’re following?

Terminaux 7.0 Beta 4 Announcement

As we are closer to the final release (that we’ve prepared for you), we’ve released the fourth beta version of Terminaux 7.0 that concludes the beta program that we’ve started almost three months ago. Terminaux 7.0 brought many interesting changes, and this beta version is the latest representation of those improvements. We’ve primed the final version of Terminaux 7.0 for documentation and for testing to find bugs even before release.

We are very excited to announce that Terminaux 7.0 Beta 4 is now available on NuGet as version 7.0.0-beta4, which you can download to your project using the following command:

$ dotnet add package Terminaux --version 7.0.0-beta4

This version of Terminaux 7.0 brings many changes that were done after the third beta version released July 3rd. You can access the source code for the fourth beta version here on GitLab.

We’ve added theme color tools, which allows you to theme your Terminaux applications according to either the pre-defined theme type or the custom theme type that you define in your theme JSON file. This is a 1:1 implementation copied and moved straight from Nitrocid with appropriate modifications done, due to the older template tools being unsuitable for use with Nitrocid. Themes also support accents, which give a dynamic look to your Terminaux applications based on your color accent.

We’ve also added all features from Nitrocid’s shell implementation, effectively removing the implementation from the Nitrocid codebase. This is to make Terminaux applications using the shell features more powerful than never before. With features like MESH scripting, command redirects, and filesystem support, your applications now became more powerful than before! You can now more easily autocomplete the paths, and you can write scripts for your applications to automate the shell operations.

We’ve also added a new feature that most libraries don’t have, but appeals to users that prefer their native language. Starting from the fourth beta, your applications can now be localized! With the new localization feature powered by LocaleStation, you can now make your Terminaux application use your native language supported by our libraries! Common languages like French, Spanish, and Portuguese are available for you to try out, and you can use the existing APIs in the LocaleStation library to make Terminaux applications determine what language to use depending on your system culture settings, such as pt-BR for Portuguese (Brazil).

Of course, we’d improved the performance of your Terminaux applications when it comes to prompting users for a huge list of selections, which is tedious on the processor. We are speaking huge amounts like 700,000 choices! The final release brings more, but Terminaux 7.0 Beta 4 is the start of such improvements!

Are you ready for Terminaux 7.0 Beta 4?

Terminaux 7.0 Beta 2 Announcement

Since the first beta, we have done improvements to several Terminaux components that will improve your user and your developer experience to build your Terminaux applications without worry. We are so excited to announce that, today, we will release the second beta version of Terminaux 7.0 that allows you to try out the new improved beta.

You can download the second beta version of Terminaux from NuGet by looking for version v7.0.0-beta2.

The mouse support has been improved, bringing several essential improvements to the mouse event handler to make sure that you will be able to handle those events easier than never before. With the renewed event listener code, you can now use such support to get mouse and keyboard events to process input and execute functions based on it. Whether it’s a left click or a key press, you can easily identify the event using a new class, InputEventInfo.

Also, we have improved mouse positioning on Linux systems by changing the protocol used from the legacy X10 protocol that had a very low limit for mouse cursor position to the modern SGR protocol that supports bigger console sizes. This makes sure that you can use Terminaux applications seamlessly in a large terminal size without having to resize it to a smaller one.

In addition to that, we have employed a better and a more performant reverse RTL code that allows your Arabic and other RTL scripts to be displayed correctly in your console, if it doesn’t reverse such scripts automatically. For RTL users, you can now benefit from those improvements to make sure that your Terminaux applications become usable in RTL systems.

Adding on top of those improvements, we have done some general improvements worth doing in the second beta, while the third beta will feature some more exciting improvements that will make your Terminaux applications stronger than never before.

Why not try out the second beta version of Terminaux 7.0?

Terminaux 4.3.x EOL reminder

To go ahead with the development of Terminaux as a whole, we’ve decided to remind you about the end of support of Terminaux 4.3.x series. This end of support decision is important as we are going forward with the project.

Today, we’d like to remind you of the end of support for this version series of Terminaux on July 7th, 2025. After this date, we will no longer provide further updates for this series, including performance and security updates.

Such announcements are short, because the end of life for a version series means that we will no longer provide the following updates:

• Any new feature updates (if any)
• Any new security updates
• Any new general improvement updates

From now to July 7th, we are planning to halt all development in preparation for the end of life date, unless something serious crops up, just before the date. A notice will be made to remind users about this end of support date.

macOS 13 (Ventura) EOL for our projects

Generally, a macOS version is declared as out of support three years after the initial build. This has become a normal strategy to ensure that users keep using up-to-date hardware and software and to stay secure. This is because macOS updates usually bring in some new features, bug fixes, and security improvements.

Today, we are announcing a change to our support policy as we end support for running our projects on macOS 13 (Ventura) systems. Those include MacBooks and iMacs that use this version of the operating system. This means that there will be no more security and stability updates to this version, and users are encouraged to upgrade to the newer OS to stay secure.

We will end support of macOS 13 (Ventura) for our projects on July 1st, 2025. This means that we will no longer provide official support for this version. We are committed to providing quality services and applications, and we promise that we improve our projects gradually.

As a side note, we will remind users who are running our projects on One UI 5 to upgrade to One UI 6.x or higher to continue receiving support, as we’ll end support for the former version in the same abovementioned date.

If you want continued support, upgrade to the latest version of macOS available for your system.

Terminaux 7.0 Beta 1 is Live!

Starting from today, we are very thrilled to announce the first beta version for an upcoming version of the Terminaux library, the seventh major version, under the beta program. Beta versions of Terminaux 7.0 allows you to try it out in its early access phase for you to report bugs and give feedback when developing Terminaux apps.

This beta program will end when the new version of Terminaux is ready, and next beta versions of Terminaux 7.0 will be released when required. This beta program will consist of several beta versions to ensure that we deliver this new version of Terminaux in its highest quality possible and to fix all bugs (obvious or not) prior to the official release.

The first beta version of Terminaux offers new features and enhancements to existing features, such as improvements to the cyclic writers. These make sure that they improve your development experience when building Terminaux apps.

The beta versions will be suffixed with the representative -beta version according to the semantic versioning guidelines, and this is important to help you identify whether you’re using the beta version or the official release. Those packages will be released on NuGet, just like all other stable releases. In GitHub, those releases will be branded as the “pre-release” versions to let you know.

If you have any feedback, bugs, or suggestions, please send them to our GitHub issues via this link. Your feedback is essential in helping us identify areas for further improvements and to enhance user experience.

Making Projects Better

Making our projects better than before is one of our most important things that we have planned to do. We have improved the build system across all projects by introducing the tools repository on GitHub that is used as a submodule. Our strategy for this plan is to make sure that all our projects get the highest quality possible, while aiming for more.

Announcements for new release of our flagship projects will be made every major version or a version that is worth talking about. Not only updates will be done, but projects that are new to the programming industry will be made to allow developers to have more options according to the program.

Recently, we have started improving the documentation of the Terminaux project for the upcoming release. We have currently restructured the cyclic writer documentation so that a single page is split to multiple pages by category. This helps find information more quickly.

In the second half of the year, we are planning to introduce changes to our work plans so that we’d be more open. Confirmed additions, improvements, and other updates will be added to every repository’s GitHub Projects, straight from the internal information. This is to let the users know of the roadmap of all our projects in a more transparent manner.

After the release of the upcoming Nitrocid version series, we’ll make sure that other projects get their own development time as we are striving to improve them with new features and other general improvements. Because the upcoming version of Nitrocid is currently in a stage where it needs to be adjusted for the next Terminaux version, a beta program will be introduced. This is to gain feedback from developers and users, and we listen to all feedback!

Making sure that we fulfill our promises to you, we’ll keep you informed of any new updates regarding our projects. Meanwhile, normal development for all projects will start on April 6th, and we hope that we introduce you to new, exciting features. Are you ready for the most exciting moments?

Update for Further Development

This month, it was a massive month for us when it comes to the build system and Terminaux. The build system witnessed many improvements across different areas, including, but not limited to:

• Introduction of the tools repository that any project (of course, not just C# projects, but non-C# ones, such as Node.js and Rust projects) can use.
• The build system actually uses the vendor scripts found under the vnd directory, which increases flexibility.
• All projects, such as Nitrocid, BassBoom, and Terminaux, now use the tools repository as a submodule instead of the project-specific build scripts.

In addition to that, we are proud to release the above repository with full documentation about how to adapt your project so that it uses this minimal and extensible build system. Then, we have actually started working on the upcoming version of Terminaux, which we will release when we feel that it’s ready for public use.

Now, we are announcing an important change to our plans for the next week. We will pause development of all projects for one week starting from March 30th as we are evaluating our plans for the coming weeks to make sure that we fulfill our promise to you. After one week, we will resume development of all projects, but we will employ different strategies to ensure high quality.

The blog will still get new articles, but we will resume normal project announcements after the one-week brownout. This way, we’ll make sure that we provide continuous updates regarding all our projects.
