Known issues 🧻

NoSuchFileOrDirectory on connect (WSL1): I know about this issue and it's a glitch of WSL I guess. Don't worry about it, just move the termscp executable into another PATH location, such as /usr/bin, or install it through the appropriate package format (e.g. deb).

Upcoming Features 🧪

Major termscp releases will now be seasonal, so expect 4 major updates during the year.

Planned for 🍁 Autumn update 🍇:

Configuration profile for bookmarks 📚: Basically this feature adds the possibility to have a specific setup for a certain host, instead of having only one global configuration.
Self-update ⬇️: In order to increase users updating termscp, I want to provide the possibility to update termscp directly from application, when a new update is available.
AWS S3 support 🪣: I'll use rust-s3 library to implement this. This is really big Maybe for the autumn update and might be moved to the Winter update.

Planned for ❄️ Winter update ⛄:

SMB Support 🎉: This will require a long time to be implemented, since I'm currently working on a Rust native SMB library, since I don't want to add new C-bindings. ~~Fear the 🦚~~

Along to new features, termscp developments is now focused on UX and performance improvements, so if you have any suggestion, feel free to open an issue.
