There are many related attempts to make the terminal more modern, by including some HTML in it, improved auto-completion, and many other ideas. For example: - TermKit (https://github.com/unconed/TermKit, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2559734) - GateOne (https://github.com/liftoff/GateOne) - DomTerm (https://domterm.org/) - Extraterm (https://extraterm.org/) - GraphTerm (https://github.com/mitotic/graphterm) - HTerm (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7539648) - Terminology (https://www.enlightenment.org/about-terminology) I wonder about the state of these, or in general about terminal emulators.

But businesses buy slack / trello / salesforce for swathes of people. That sort of thing doesn't happen if the following is simply limited to programmers / power users (and a cross section of those at that) I haven't seen any C++11+ wrappers for ncurses... until, recently: https://github.com/clangen/cursespp, https://github.com/Praetonus/Ncursescpp strange license. There are people who are on the forefront of terminal tech, examples are stuff by https://github.com/saitoha, https://github.com/mitotic/graphterm There is hyper: https://hyper.is/ It works on windows. But by then, you potentially have the lag time most terminal users want to bypass. For windows, maybe https://github.com/microso

I too though XMLterm very cool - and I hope DomTerm can fill its place. The author of XMLterm (R. Saravanan) more recently developed GraphTerm (https://github.com/mitotic/graphterm) but has not had time to continue work on it.
