✨ New features

Find text in your scroll-back (Ctrl+F)

Press Ctrl+F to open a search bar right inside the terminal and find any text in the
scroll-back history — Enter jumps to the previous match, Shift+Enter to the next,
F3 repeats, Esc closes.
Every match is highlighted in yellow, the current one in orange, and matches stay
anchored to the right line even as old output scrolls off the top of the buffer.

Keyword highlighting + per-tab alerts

Define your own keyword list under Settings → Highlight (add, remove, and enable/disable
each one). Matching text is highlighted on screen wherever it appears, case-insensitive.
When a keyword shows up on a tab you're not currently looking at, that tab's dot turns
red so you notice it — switching to the tab clears the alert. Great for watching several
sessions at once for an error string.

A much bigger, TeraTerm-compatible TTL scripting language

The TTL engine now understands a large set of TeraTerm-compatible commands, so many
existing TeraTerm macros run with little or no change.
New control flow — for/next, do/loop, while/until, call, goto, break,
continue, include — plus a real expression parser (parentheses, logical & comparison
operators, hex 0x / $), and dozens of new string, file/folder and utility commands
(sprintf, strsplit, filereadln, getdate, random, crc32, inputbox, yesnobox, …).
New serial-specific script commands: sendbreak, setbaud, setdtr, setrts, sendfile.
Note: a single-string wait keeps ETTerms' existing settle-and-timeout behavior; multi-string
wait follows TeraTerm semantics (times out and continues with result=0).

See — or hide — what your scripts are doing

Scripts now echo their progress (waits, sends, errors) in grey directly in the terminal,
and you can switch this off under Settings → Terminal (Show script trace).
The trace is display-only: it never reaches your session log, the AI bridge, or the device,
so your captured machine logs stay clean.

Two builds are produced:

Build	Needs .NET 8 Desktop Runtime?	Notes
Standard (`ETTerms_v0.5.0`)	✅ Yes	Smaller; for machines that already have the runtime
Portable (`ETTerms_v0.5.0_portable`)	❌ No	Runtime bundled — unzip and run, no install / admin needed

Run ETTerms v0.5.0.exe.
