   I'm testing the terminal app of #COSMIC Desktop, and I find it very appealing:
   https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-term

   cosmic-term is based on Alacritty, a modern and feature-rich terminal emulator which would be perfect if only it supported splits.

   And guess what? cosmic-term adds horizontal and vertical splits!

   Of course, cosmic-term can run in other desktops too. I'm using it with #KDE #Plasma.

     Also important: the latest version of #COSMIC Terminal (1.0.0-alpha4) is already packaged for the two distros I use most often, #Arch and #Fedora.

     @snaggen wow that's awesome! I'll check it out.

     I use password-store, but I've always been uneasy copying passwords to the system clipboard, where they can be accidentally pasted in a chat, or remain visible for days in the KDE clipboard history.

     @codewiz
     If you type a lot of passwords in your terminal, I have a Cosmic Term branch with a simple password manager

     https://github.com/snaggen/cosmic-term/tree/password_manager

     It stores and retrieves passwords from the default keyring, so the passwords are stored safely.

     @snaggen Probably someone has already written a password-store daemon which uses the proper dbus interface for password management?

     I want to keep using the on-disk format because git is easy to sync across devices and pgp allows using multiple keys (one per device).
