Contour 0.8 is out, bringing interactive command blocks, status indicators, and massive C++ terminal rendering speedups.
New order tracking features
The biggest change is the addition of interactive sections for commands. The program can now track each command individually, showing how long it took, what its completion status was, and what folder it was executed in. Failed commands are highlighted in red, while those currently executing are highlighted in yellow.
Users can hide multiple command results on a single line, using a new area for line numbers and timestamps. A fixed section at the top of the screen keeps each command visible even when scrolling. In addition, there is the ability to navigate between commands with special key combinations, receive notifications for long-running tasks, and automatically detect web addresses and file paths so they can be opened with a click.
Faster speed and better performance
In terms of speed, the benchmarks show significant improvements. Processing plain and colored text is much faster, while performance in full-screen applications is significantly improved. At the same time, a support function for high-demand graphics has been added, improving tasks that load a lot of images.
