As an aside, in terms of design and little helpers (e.g. git/virtualenv) powerline shell really made my terminal much more friendly: https://github.com/banga/powerline-shell https://github.com/banga/powerline-shell Idea: proper graphics for data/image/video display. I think it's an interesting idea that a terminal editor can have text only input, but the ability to draw real high-res graphical output. e.g. a canvas to draw your matplotlib diagram in the terminal output or a more graphical version of htop (with time data graphs etc).

> Idea: proper graphics for data/image/video display. Too late. xterm already has it for a long time (I remember seeing it working as long ago as in 2003 in rxvt, and it was nowhere new thing then). See the screenshot of w3m, a lynx-like web browser: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W3m https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W3m My today's rxvt-unicode also supports this mode.
