Free Software Linux

There has been a lot of talk over the last month or so about Terminator. This week I have finally managed to pull my finger out and have a play with it. I had not bothered before now due to the fact that previous releases had depended on gnome-terminal; however, the latest release has dropped the gnome-terminal dependency and can now be configured via a simple config file located at ~/.config/terminator/config I am totally impressed with Terminator. For anyone who has not heard [is there anyone?], the main advantage to using Terminator is its ability to split the screen into multiple terminals. The advantages this brings were made immediately obvious to me as I attempted to customise the look and feel of my new terminal window; in this screenshot I have the manual page open for terminator_config while editing my new config file. Good stuff. The latests 0.9 release can be grabbed from the PPA for Terminator on Launchpad. Tags: software, terminator, ubuntu
