I recently switched from using a Mac professionally for 8 years to Ubuntu and used iTerm on the Mac, and I honestly have no idea what you're talking about. iTerm was good, but I miss nothing about it. The default terminal with Ubuntu 18 is just as good. Well, better, because it has Ubuntu underneath it all ;)
- maratc 7y agoI had colleagues who returned their company-issued X1 Carbons and bought a Mac with out-of-pocket money, so they could use iTerm2. Some of its features are indispensable and not found anywhere in Linux, although YMMV of course. I use iTerm to connect to Ubuntu and I feel like I have the best of both worlds, a great terminal emulator and Ubuntu beneath it.
- gilbetron 7y agoWhat features? (Honestly asking)
- maratc 7y ago- Auto-summon of the Password Manager on password prompts - Grep for things that look like IP address and color them in blue, or MAC address in green, or errors in red - Auto-Complete based on the text in terminal (this leaves people watching me `docker rmi f7<Cmd-;>` breathless) - Broadcast same keypresses into several panes (having SSH sessions to several servers) - Making an icon jump when a long running command just finished - etc.etc.etc.
