Announcing the first public code release of a4, a dynamic terminal window manager. There are still improvements to be made but the tool is essentially working now. A4 is a partial rewrite of dvtm, which in turn is a text-based implementation of dwm. A4 replaces the ncurses back end with libtickit for text drawing and keyboard and mouse input processing. In addition, terminal processing is performed using the libvterm library.

This first release of a4 provides several new features, including support for more complete, 24bit, dynamic colorizing, and configuration in an a4.ini file. See https://a4term.com for documentation, including installation instructions, a copy of the manual page, and default keyboard maps.
