Devices running Android 3.0 or more recent show the Action Bar UI.

The Action Bar UI allows you to:

• quickly switch between terminal windows
• create a new terminal window
• close the current terminal window
• bring up the options menu.

By default the action bar is always shown.

• The "Action Bar" preference can be used to hide the action bar.
• When hidden, tapping on the top half of the terminal screen will show/hide the action bar.
• Tapping on the bottom half of the terminal screen will show/hide the soft keyboard.
