Hi everyone!
We just released a major release of MobaXterm (9.0)!
We have been working on this release for months and we are now ready to release it. It comes with many exciting new features and enhancements:
• The new "Ubuntu Bash on Windows" (also known as "Windows Subsystem for Linux" or "WSL") feature has been integrated into MobaXterm.
This allows you to use the new Ubuntu Bash feature (introduced in latest Windows 10 builds) directly into MobaXterm, and to take advantage of MobaXterm convenient interface (tabs, advanced terminal emulator, syntax highlighting, multi-execution, …). You can even start a graphical application in Ubuntu Bash and it will be displayed thanks to MobaXterm embedded X server! For those who do not have the latest Windows 10 with WSL, remember that you can still have Bash on Windows (and much more) by opening a local terminal in MobaXterm.
• You can now track terminal activity. When you are working in a tab, if some activity is detected in another tab, the icon will blink, and the tab title will turn to blue color in order to inform you that the terminal content has been modified.
• A new experimental feature allows you to open any external file or program directly into MobaXterm tabbed interface.
• You can now specify a macro in Ssh, Telnet, Rsh, Mosh, Serial (COM) and Shell sessions. This allows you to automatically execute a macro when session starts. By the way, the macros have been greatly improved: you can now edit them in a more convenient way and you can also specify pattern conditions (wait for a pattern before following up with macro execution).
• Another new interesting feature which can be helpful is the "browser emulation". You can now emulate older Internet Explorer versions, from IE7 to IE11. Of course, you can only emulate versions of IE that are older than yours. This is very useful in order to display a website or url with a specific version of Internet Explorer.
• The new syntax coloration feature has been greatly improved with speed improvements and better keywords detection.
In fact the full changelog is quite huge, so we will not post it here
You can download this new release here: http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/download-home-edition.html
We wanted to say a big thanks to you all. We have received many emails containing very positive feedback concerning MobaXterm and this is very motivating for us!
Kind regards from MobaXterm team
