Tabby

This is a community package of Tabby, maintained independently and unaffiliated with the Tabby project. It repackages the official upstream Linux build unmodified.

Tabby (formerly Terminus) is a highly configurable, cross-platform terminal emulator and SSH, serial and Telnet client. It combines a local shell with a full connection manager in one app.

• Tabs and split panes with a searchable, per-tab scrollback.
• Integrated SSH client with a saved-connection manager, jump hosts, X11 and port forwarding, and a built-in SFTP panel.
• Serial and Telnet connections, plus a local terminal.
• Themes, fonts and ligatures, per-profile colours, and a plugin system.
• Encrypted vault for connection secrets.

Permissions: by default this package keeps a tight sandbox — network and display only — which is enough for SSH/Telnet sessions, port forwarding and the local sandboxed shell. The app's own config and vault live inside the sandbox. A few optional capabilities are not granted by default; enable the ones you need with "flatpak override":

• Reuse your existing host SSH keys/config: flatpak override --user --filesystem=~/.ssh:ro org.tabby.Tabby
• Serial-port connections: flatpak override --user --device=all org.tabby.Tabby
• Browse your whole home directory in the SFTP panel: flatpak override --user --filesystem=home org.tabby.Tabby
• Run your host shell (e.g. zsh or fish, with your real environment) in the local terminal instead of the sandbox's bash: grant host access with flatpak override --user --talk-name=org.freedesktop.Flatpak org.tabby.Tabby, then add a profile whose command is flatpak-spawn --host /usr/bin/zsh (or your shell).

Software updates are handled by Flatpak; the app's own update checker is off by default.
