New terminal tab gives "Connection to backend lost Too may failures (error code 1006)..." attempting WebSockets connection to backend server."

When I choose the File->New terminal tab menu (or New Window), I get "Connection to backend lost Too may failures (error code 1006) attempting WebSockets connection to backend server." This also stops the first tab from working properly.

domterm status:

Hm. I'm not seeing that. I just tested it. Could be due to the relatively old version of libwebsockets. I get:

Using Libwebsockets 4.1.99-v4.1.0-112-g773b5490

Would you mind trying to clone and build libwebsockets, as in the instructions?

I tried but got some build errors which I've put in this issue: #92

[Mike]

Fixed with newer libwebsockets
