+      Final Term is a new breed of terminal emulator.
+
+      It goes beyond mere emulation and understands what is happening inside the shell it is hosting. This allows it to offer features no other terminal can, including:
+
+      - Semantic text menus
+      - Smart command completion
+      - GUI terminal controls
