feature/bug-fix roadmap
-----------------------
roadmap
-------
0.9.0
* clean up network ops (write fn, read safety)
* fix preferences loading/saving, include key stuff, add `known_hosts` reset option
* general ssheven code cleanup
* text selection + copy
* select words on double click
* font face and size options
1.0.0 (first "real" release)
* nicer error presentation for more failure cases
* read Apple HIG and obsessively optimize placement of all GUI elements
* add `known_hosts` reset option
* read Apple HIG and clean up UI/UX
* license info in an about box type thing
* finish and upload papercraft box, floppy sticker artwork, icon/logo svg
* configurable terminal string
known bugs
* initial key exchange is too slow for 68030 and 68020 systems (improve `mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod` and maybe the assembly BN code?)
* input latency feels high? related to draw speed/frequency? (maybe try to use an "offscreen graphics world" framebuffer? big refactor)
* initial key exchange is too slow for 68030 machines (improve `mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod` and BN assembly) (needs 5x speed improvement for 68030)
* input latency feels high because redrawing the screen is slow
* receiving a large amount of data breaks the channel (e.g. `cat /dev/zero`)
* hook scrolling into vterm to reduce redraws/blanking
* excessive redraws/flicker while selecting
* non-US keyboard input has issues
* custom colors are a little wonky
possible upcoming features
* font face and size options
* scp file transfer
* more complete color support (will need to use color quickdraw, currently uses an 8-color hack for traditional quickdraw)
* more complete color support (currently uses an 8-color hack)
* keyboard-interactive authentication
