Terminaux 6.1.x and 7.0.x EOL Reminder

When Terminaux 6.1.x and 7.0.x were released, we gave them the dates that we are expected to stop providing further updates for these version series. Terminaux 6.1.x focused on adding wrapped writers and modern argument parsing from the Nitrocid codebase, which was an improvement over version 6.0.x that added many features. Meanwhile, v7.0.x focused on adding more features while restructuring critical parts of code and improving the writers.

We are, hereby, announcing that every project that uses both Terminaux 6.1.x and 7.0.x needs to be aware that the end of life date is reaching closer. We have assigned the end of life date for both version series to August 5th, 2026.

We recommend that every project migrate from v6.1.x and v7.0.x version series to the v8.x version series for continuous support, because we are now providing long-term support for the latter version series, as we explained here.

After August 5th, 2026, we won’t provide any new security updates and other updates to v6.1.x and v7.0.x.

We have prepared a migration guide in the GitBook docs in the below links. If you are running Terminaux v6.1.x, you’ll have to perform both steps 1 and 2. However, if you are running v7.0, you can just perform step 2.

Terminaux 8.0 adds audio cues, global password mask for inputs that are related to passwords and other secrets, support for hidden commands, and more features, as well as improvements and bug fixes. Since then, various incremental versions have been released, with v8.4 being the latest for adding support for FreeBSD systems.

Announcing Terminaux 6.1.x series support

Terminaux 6.0 was released on December 22nd, 2024. Since then, various improvements have been applied to the codebase, leading to the release of the 6.1 version on January 13th, 2025.

Today, we are announcing that the last version series of the Terminaux 6.x.x version range is the 6.1.x series, which is supported until August 5th, 2026. The documentation has been finally split to a stable documentation for the 6.1.x series, which you can find here.

Originally, it’s supposed to be one year for all version series for each major release, but Terminaux 6.0 was released earlier than usual. As a result, bugs have surfaced in the initial version, and we believe that almost all bugs have been fixed, and we’re ready to move the 6.x.x series to the maintenance stage.

We will open the Terminaux 7.0 development sooner.
