Taliing about integration, I like terminals with good mouse support, where one can plumb the selected text with a click.
For some reason, there aren't so many, except
- 9term from plan9,
- tilix or tylix, which has customisable actions for regex patterns
- URL, mostly http, in vte based terminal
I wrote a simple patch for st that process some escape sequence from the shell to have the terminal aware of its shell current working dir (ocs7).
Using this simple hack, one can just cd & ls & select "foo.pdf" & right click to have it handled by one ´s plumber (open, xdg-open, plumb ...) or even right click "path/to/file:line:column" from a log to the editor.
This feature is so simple, so addictive in plan9/acme, that I don't really get why it isn't offered by most terminals.
