10GB file. Casey's refterm prints it in 41 seconds, Windows Terminal takes over 6 hours, and still counting.

@krixano Thanks for the link.

I guess I should've probably checked the "LICENSE" file before going off about proprietary code. Still, happy with anything that gives an advantage to players that aren't multi-billion dollar corporations. 路 2 years ago

@lykso Windows Terminal isn't actually proprietary, but I do understand your point. Casey released his code as GPL because he wanted to support competitors that weren't big companies with lots of funding, basically.

However due to licensing issue, no one in the team is allowed to see the code (GPL-licensed).

This is the strongest argument I've seen for using the GPL. Proprietary code *should* be worse. 路 2 years ago
