So, rc3 has been released, files are here. This time I really do hope there’s no more bugs and v1.2 can officially be released next week.
Basically, once an RC lasts at least a week with no new reported issues, it becomes the final release version… I’ll not bother with a Haiku package for this one since it looks like haikuports is the better way to distribute anyway.
Packaged for testing done: https://codeberg.org/Begasus/HaikuTestDrive/raw/branch/master/syncterm/syncterm-1.2~rc3-1-x86_64.hpkg
Recipe updated (changes for svg icon not included): GitHub - Begasus/haikuports at syncterm
EDIT: updated checksum
Checksum for package:
02a0eef2fbbb295384243bdd0a7df49d83a32c88c3f1e9ca7b12f324337f6fd0 syncterm-1.2~rc3-1-x86_64.hpkg
ok, these are the “final” icons; bitmaps, as well as sources such as svg, rdef and iom, are included
Now I like the Haiku styled icon a lot more! Will use that as the icon for the package (unless someone steps up to use the other one) 
EDIT: updated package and checksum is just updated for the package with the new icon.
EDIT2: PR created as draft (makes it easier to comment):
Nice ST icon:)
Did you create it from scratch ?
Next article on Haiku Insider website will be about Icon-O-matic that’s why I’m asking
In this case yes, because the letters are very “geometrical”, I usually start sketching on Post-Its, if it looks right, I just import it to WonderBrush (I don’t use the IOM internal reference image feature, because WB has a bigger canvas) then to IOM
Ok nice.
And how do you go from wonderbrush to icon-o-matic ? I mean the format used ?
WonderBrush is able to manage SVG files, as IOM as well
PR merged, no comments given there, if all goes well, available later in the depot. 
As an update, SyncTERM 1.3 has been released (SyncTERM 1.2 was badly broken, so 1.3 followed it something like 12 hours later).
Build completed on buildmasters for 1.3, ready for an update
Should it be launched from Terminal only ?
As nothing happened if I clicked on it Deskbar/Application menu entry for SyncTERM.

SDL Video Initialization Failed
~>
If SDL is installed, you should be able to launch it normally. If SDL is not installed, it is a terminal-only app on Haiku currently (and should likely be ran with -ic then configured for Curses mode).
If Haiku ever boots on my laptop, I’ll likely do a native Haiku backend so the SDL dependency isn’t required.
