Installation

Windows

Install Manually

• For 64-bit installation package, please download Setup windows_x64 (.exe), and double-click to install after downloading.
• For ARM64 installation package, please download Setup windows_arm64 (.exe), and double-click to install after downloading.

macOS

Install Manually

After downloading, open the .dmg file and drag FaiTerm.app into the Applications folder.

Troubleshooting

• Since the app is not yet Apple-signed, macOS may show one of the following prompts:
  • "FaiTerm" is damaged and can't be opened
  • Cannot open "FaiTerm" because the developer cannot be verified

Use the following steps:

1. Allow apps from "Anywhere" (skip if this option is not shown on your system)

sudo spctl --master-disable

Then go to System Settings -> Privacy & Security and confirm Anywhere is selected in the Security section.

2. Remove the app quarantine attribute (recommended)

sudo xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/FaiTerm.app

If you are not sure about the app path, drag the app icon into Terminal after the command to auto-fill the full path.

3. Extra step for macOS Ventura and later

The first launch may still be blocked. Go to System Settings -> Privacy & Security, click Open Anyway in the Security section, then click Open in the dialog. Usually this is only needed once.

• Additionally, the dmg package includes a Repair script. You can double-click it and enter the admin password to quickly fix the same issues.

Linux

Install Manually

• For deb installation package, download linux_amd64.deb (.deb)
• For AppImage package, download linux_amd64.AppImage (.AppImage)

Install deb package using apt-get:

sudo apt-get install ./faiterm_{version}_linux_amd64.deb

Use AppImage:

chmod u+x faiterm_{version}_linux_amd64.AppImage
./faiterm_{version}_linux_amd64.AppImage
