What is new in SheepTerm 6.1-13
- Home: Edit Home is now at the right end of the Add Host row, with its name — and right-clicking any tile offers it too. - Home: in Edit Home, a tile's × and size buttons are larger boxes that are easy to hit; a click no longer starts dragging the tile instead. - Home: Rack Fill is no longer on a new Home board — add it any time from Add Widget. --- Signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple. Download `SheepTerm-6.1-13.dmg`, open it and drag **SheepTerm** onto **Applications** (choose **Replace** when you already have it), or update from inside the app. Requires macOS 26.4 or later, Apple Silicon.
