As a decade-long Ubuntu user, it seems strange to see somebody so enthusiastically compliment Gnome Terminal, something I apparently just take for granted.
How bad can the MacOS terminal really be?
- PleaseHelpMe 9y agoWithout iTerm, MacOS users would cry, believe me.
- grzm 9y agoYes, I’m one data point, but use the stock terminal. I installed iTerm at one point but didn’t find enough benefit to justify continuing to do so. I have no doubt those using iTerm enjoy it and are productive, but phrasing it as you do is really unnecessary.
- zupzupper 9y agoIt's not great. Better than the default windows one, I think a lot of people on OSX pick up iTerm2 instead.
- oliwarner 9y ago"Better than CMD.exe" High praise.
- JdeBP 9y agoThat's not what xe actually said. I hope that if zupzupper had wanted to name the actual executable xe would have got the name right, and said better than conhost.exe. * http://jdebp.eu./FGA/a-command-interpreter-is-not-a-console.html http://jdebp.eu./FGA/a-command-interpreter-is-not-a-console....
- oliwarner 9y agoOnly just caught this. It was a joke; highlighting that comparing anything favourably to the pile of crap that is the traditional Windows command interface (window, or interface, it really doesn't matter for the comparison) is barely worth recognition for its obviousness. I'm glad it gave you so much amusement.
