From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've been looking for a terminal with better bookmark support; I use mRemoteNG on windows for my RDP/SSH work, and I haven't been happy with any alternative on Linux that handles session bookmarks like that. I'm curious to try this.
the hell are terminal bookmarks?
I manage a lot of systems, so just click to open a ssh session in a new tab. I usually have shell aliases, but a bookmark that could set the title of the tab to the hostname and account for easier nav would be my goal. Being able to dynamically open tab groups too would be good, like if I have a dev/prod/SQL server for an app I could 1-click to open a group of 3 tabs
Well, there's this if you want to use it in Linux, I've used it before, liked it well enough, but not paying for it so I removed it (It's sort of crippled if run free). I personally use Konsole on KDE which works quite well. I've read and think that Konsole also allows multiple bookmarked connections. I haven't really tested it myself, I have roughly 10 machines I log into daily so I may try that further.

Before I made the leap to Linux years ago, I loved using MRemoteNG. Simply hands down the best. IMHO
I tesed the client posted here by the OP. While it looks pretty nice, it suffers the same thing as others I've tried. Nothing beats the simplicity of the plain 'ol shell in Linux or in OSX. :)
Windows Terminal has profiles that you can configure a lot so you can have SSH profiles too, don't know if that fits your use case exactly though
