Original release notes

Your servers now live in the Files app — and the terminal and your files finally sit side by side.

• MOUNT A HOST IN FILES — Turn on a mount and the server shows up in Files on iPhone and iPad, next to iCloud Drive. Browse it, open a file straight into any app that uses the document picker, and save back to it. Downloads draw a real progress bar and can be cancelled. Two servers that share a name are told apart by their group, so "Web" and "Web" stop looking identical.

• FILES BESIDE THE TERMINAL — On iPad and Mac, open a file pane next to the session you're working in. It opens on the folder your shell is standing in, and closing it leaves the connection running.

• STAY WHERE YOU LEFT OFF — Switching to another tab and back used to drop you at the top and hang up the connection. Terminals and Files now keep the session you were in — same server, same folder — and a server reopens in the folder you left it in, not at the filesystem root.

• CHOOSE WHICH APP OPENS WHAT — Set one default for every remote file, or a rule per file type: Moray's own editor, Quick Look, or any app on your Mac. "Always Open With" sets it from the file itself; Settings lists every rule you've made.

• COMMAND HISTORY, PER HOST — Moray now remembers what you typed on each server, ranked by how recently and how often you ran it. Search it from the terminal's History sheet, then re-run or paste in a tap. Anything typed at a password or passphrase prompt is never recorded, and a leading space keeps a command out of history the way shells have always allowed.

• SEVERAL SHELLS, ONE SERVER — Open sessions on the same host are numbered instead of all reading alike, and any session can be renamed to "deploy" or "logs". On a hardware keyboard, ⌘1–⌘9 jump between tabs and ⌘T opens a new one.

• IMPORT THE HOSTS YOU ALREADY HAVE — "Import Hosts…" now reads JSON and CSV exports from other SSH clients as well as ~/.ssh/config. Folders in the export become Moray groups, and importing twice won't duplicate them.

• SEE AND CHANGE YOUR SECRETS — Saved passwords can be revealed and edited wherever you set them, and a private key's passphrase can now be changed or removed.

FIXED — Pasting into the terminal could leave a stray "~" behind; input is now sent strictly in the order you typed it. An iCloud sync failure said "CKErrorDomain Code=2" and now says what actually went wrong.
