Application Icon Formats

App Icon Generator

Quickly generate web, mobile and social icons.

Introduction

Your new project needs icons. Different platforms have different icon guidelines. This project seeks to condense those requirements into a single script that handles all the technical guidelines.

Provide the script a single image and it will generate everything you need.

iterm2 tmux
These release notes are for the development builds of iTerm2. The last stable release was 1.0.0.
iTerm2 1.0.0.20120108
You'd better sit down for this one.
Marquee Features
- Deep tmux integration!
Have you ever had an ssh session lost because you had to reboot, had a network failure, or the power went out? Are you tired of giving up a keystroke to tmux or screen? Suffer no longer! iTerm2 and tmux are now deeply integrated. By installing a special version of tmux, it gains the ability to speak directly to iTerm2. When you run tmux with -C, iTerm2 will open real, native windows or tabs for each tmux window. The whole state of your tmux session is reflected in native iTerm2 windows. As you interact with a window, your typing is sent back to tmux. Any time you resize a window, add a split pane, close a split pane, close a window, or open a window (with Shell->tmux->new window), that action happens in tmux as well as in iTerm2. Even your window positions and tabs are saved from session to session. For more
