Please support panes, tabs and scripting for them. I tried tmux, worked in it for 6 months, but what annoyed me is the lack of support for properly styling what's on the screen. For instance, I wanted panes to be of various background colors and font sizes, which was not really possible at all in tmux.
I'm currently using Terminator, but it's rather ugly in terms of scripting for panes and tabs. If you could implement those two features out of the box, I'd pay for this software.
- lsiebert 13y agoif it supported different font sizes, that would be interesting. I am not aware of any terminal emulator that does that, however.
- snitko 13y agoTerminator does that, pretty useful.
- epo 13y agoWhat are you calling a 'terminal emulator'? I think most support multiple fonts at different sizes. Apple's Terminal does, as do all the terminal emulators on my Centos systems.
- loudmax 13y agoIn tmux, you can have multiple panes inside of the same terminal window. Apple's Terminal lets you change the font, but as far as I know, there isn't support for multiple font sizes inside of the same terminal window.
- omaranto 13y agoReally? I thought most terminal emulator only let you use one font at a time. If the one I use let's you have text in multiple fonts displayed at once, I certainly don't know how to do it. Or by "multiple fonts" did you just mean that you can change the font on the entire window (and that you have multiple options for doing so)?
- ernesth 13y agorxvt-unicode allows you to have multiple fonts at the same time for falling back when a character is not present in the default font. For example my terminal uses a different korean font for hangul and a specific japanese font for kana and kanji in addition to my default font for european script.
- lsiebert 13y agoin the same window though?
- jlgreco 13y agoxterm can support double-height characters, but that is largely academic. There isn't much it can be used for; I've never seen it used at all except to demonstrate that it can do it.
- Rovanion 13y agoHave you tried using a tiling window manager with multiple terminals with different profiles running?
