Persistant terminal session on tab refresh

[bpmct]

Eclipse Theia keeps any terminal sessions open when the tab is refreshed. Would it be possible to have this same functionality in code-server? Either enabled at all times, or with a flag.

VSCode 1.51 has been released with support for "Ability to persist/reconnect to terminal sessions." might this actually fix this issue?

Yes, I'm pretty sure it should! Will be working on this update soon.

I just installed code server v3.7.2 which contains the update to vscode 1.51 but sadly the terminal sessions are not persistent :(

[code-asher]

Sorry about that, we still need to implement the persistence. I have it partially implemented but it doesn't work for things like htop or vim.

Any news on this? @code-asher Do you have a starting point so I can take a look?
