Hi,

Starting with Bobcat 0.9.7, the headless build of Bobcat is now officially supported!

What's "headless" Bobcat?

It's the SDL2GUI version, meaning Bobcat runs on an SDL2 framebuffer, instead of relying on a desktop environment or GUI toolkit.
Perfect for low-resource systems, embedded setups, or servers.

AFAIK, this makes Bobcat one of the most -if not the most- advanced terminal emulators capable of running directly on a framebuffer.

Right now it's available on Arch Linux via AUR (deb package will soon follow).

You can install it easily with your favorite AUR helper, for example:

#yay -S bobcat-terminal-headless-git

However, please note that standard version and headless version are mutually exclusive packages.

Best regards,
Oblivion
