The Best Terminal Emulator Anonymous 03/09/16 (Wed) 07:02:59 No.539469

What is your favorite terminal emulator and why?

My favorite is Terminology. It just has so much functionality in it from the beginning.

>recognizes URL's and file locations

>can change the background to any pic, gif, or video

>can watch videos, view pics, etc.

>has tabs and pane splitting

>keeps a huge log

>easily configurable

Any terminal where I can split pane and watch porn on one half (through terminology itself) and work in the other half is a-okay in my book.

how do you make the wallpaper didn't get split in into every single separate screens? I like my wallpaper merged into every split screen.

I'm not sure if you can. I've never really done that myself. Maybe someone else can help.

Anonymous 03/09/16 (Wed) 08:22:29 No.539492

Wallpapers, tabs and pane splitting should be handled by your WM/multiplexor.

This is bloat.

Tmux, no questions

Anonymous 03/09/16 (Wed) 08:52:26 No.539506

You just cited a bunch of reasons why not to use it: these are vulnerabilities: potential risks of unauthorized arbitrary executions

Anonymous 03/09/16 (Wed) 10:45:00 No.539531

urxvt because it's nice enough

Anonymous 03/09/16 (Wed) 12:08:11 No.539550

rxvt-unicode or nothing.

More important question, what about Wayland?

Anonymous 03/09/16 (Wed) 12:14:33 No.539553

wayland is for noobz who can't into mir

Anonymous 03/09/16 (Wed) 12:31:41 No.539559

That'd be hard to achieve. Try tmux.

Mir is for Canonical employees

Termite. Its small, lightweight, configurable. All you need when using a window manager. L

How retarded am I for using xterm?

Does what I want a terminal emulator to do.

Anonymous 03/09/16 (Wed) 14:26:00 No.539609

I'm using terminator, I like the splitting feature and the hotkeys but ~50mb for a terminal emulator is kinda bloated.

Anonymous 03/09/16 (Wed) 14:35:05 No.539613

And it's a good one at that.

LibVTE did nothing wrong outside of not being hipster enough. Termite is extremely lightweight, has saner defaults than urxvt (like font fallback) and supports true color (unlike terminologoy).

Terminator, because it doesn't give a shit about size hints and I use Window Maker.

Anonymous 03/09/16 (Wed) 23:55:50 No.540019

terminator is pretty good for what it is; if you like a full-featured terminal emulator, it's a good choice.

if you like a small one, urxvt.

Anonymous 03/10/16 (Thu) 01:44:12 No.540065

I like bash.

It's simple, does everything I need, and comes with Ubuntu.

Why not just use the default terminal emulator that comes with your DE?

Unless of course you're going for a rice without a DE, in which case ROXterm is the obvious answer.

Only downside is you can't disable bold font.
