Blink v17.3.0 is OUT!
Don't fool yourself with the new features, this update is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.

What's New:

🚀 Custom Mosh+17.3.0: Now including undercurl, strikethrough, and other server-side improvements. Update the static Mosh on remote servers with the `--install-static` flag.

✏️Vim for Local Editing: Use Vim for quick local edits. Read more in our docs (https://t.co/WdbqQOQl38). Special thanks here to the previous work of @nholzschuch on iOS System!

⌨️ New Interactive Commands: We've also added `less`, `bc`, and `ping6` commands.

🗝️ Default Agent Configuration: `ssh-add` now remembers your configuration between sessions, and you can configure keys and modes within Settings (go to Config > Default Agent).

🔗 Mosh with ProxyJump: Catching up with our previous mosh client, you can now connect with ProxyJump.

📱New iPad Pro and Air Support:** Blink now fully tailors the layouts for the latest iPad Pro and iPad Air models. on iOS System

🎛️ Shell Improvements: Numerous fixes have been made to improve command execution and overall system integration, like telnet, random segmentation faults after running consecutive commands, Ctrl-D handling, commands that may hang the shell, etc...

🎛️ Improved Arrow Key Functionality: Arrows now work in both terminal and application modes, improving compatibility and user experience.

🔧Crash Fixes and Stability Improvements: We left this release in the oven for a while to squash even the weirdest bugs and misbehaviors.

@wisco_disco Hey Doug! All keyboard configuration is on "config > keyboard". Cmd, Alt and Ctrl are "Modifier Keys", so set them up there. Special presses are on "Custom Presses". That should cover all you need! Open a https://t.co/wKgOXzkez6 or join us on Discord If you need more guidance!

@jemrayfield Hi! I haven't tested with Enterprise myself. Does it work in Safari with the same URL? Or maybe using "Open in VSCode" as the route is registered. Write to support at https://t.co/rANcGA6F45 or Discord and we can discuss more.

@sungkwangsong Hey, not sure. We don’t have control over purchases at all. That’s all handled by the AppStore automatically. Is that a renewal? I’d try to reach out to Apple if you see anything weird going on.

[Blink Shell @BlinkShell]

@AceXintense @mitchellh It is in our roadmap 😍

And many more things to come!

@almeidapaulopt The folks at @BlinkShell for iOS brought us new docs about using Tailscale with mosh for stable and responsive shell connections even on mobile data https://t.co/8kckwLOURC

If you’re a developer and you haven’t yet tried @BlinkShell on your iPad, you need to get on it. It’s not going to replace a MacBook but you can get real dev work done on iPadOS. Not to mention the occasional remote in to fix servers from your phone. Has saved me many times.

@robwithhair We did our best providing a migration path that we kept open for two years, and that’s something no other apps have done. It is a shame that Apple was not able to “transfer” the app to our new account and we were all forced into this situation. But I agree, it sucks.

The new "Bora Bora" environment on Apple Vision Pro is probably my new favourite. The level of detail is stunning, with the palm trees subtly moving in the wind (with matching shadows on the beach). My @BlinkShell terminal never looked so sunny, ha!

@MichaelBCodes @twostraws @twannl @DonnyWals @seanallen_dev In short, I don’t want state in my machines. I definitely don’t want in on my iPad. I want this https://t.co/vIUyd6yxjn

@wlmiddelkoop That looks so good it almost looked fake. I had to zoom in! :)
