What Tabby is and isn't

Tabby is an alternative to Windows' standard terminal (conhost), PowerShell ISE, PuTTY, macOS Terminal.app and iTerm
Tabby is not a new shell or a MinGW or Cygwin replacement. Neither is it lightweight - if RAM usage is of importance, consider Conemu or Alacritty

Terminal features

A V220 terminal + various extensions
Multiple nested split panes
Tabs on any side of the window
Optional dockable window with a global spawn hotkey ("Quake console")
Progress detection
Notification on process completion
Bracketed paste, multiline paste warnings
Font ligatures
Custom shell profiles
Optional RMB paste and copy-on select (PuTTY style)

SSH Client

SSH2 client with a connection manager
X11 and port forwarding
Automatic jump host management
Agent forwarding (incl. Pageant and Windows native OpenSSH Agent)
Login scripts

Serial Terminal

Saved connections
Readline input support
Optional hex byte-by-byte input and hexdump output
Newline conversion
Automatic reconnection

Portable

Tabby will run as a portable app on Windows, if you create a data folder in the same location where Tabby.exe lives.
