Free terminals software for linux

Term::GnuplotTerminals is a Perl documentation of gnuplot output devices.

aed767

The aed512 and aed767 terminal drivers support AED graphics terminals. The two drivers differ only in their horizontal ranges, which are 512 and 768 pixels, respectively. Their vertical range is 575 pixels. There are no options for these drivers.

aifm

Several options may be set in aifm---the Adobe Illustrator 3.0+ driver.

Syntax:

set terminal aifm {< color >} {"< fontname >"} {< fontsize >}

< color > is either color or monochrome; "< fontname >" is the name of a valid PostScript font; < fontsize > is the size of the font in PostScript points, before scaling by the set size command. Selecting default sets all options to their default values: monochrome, "Times-Roman", and 14pt.

Since AI does not really support multiple pages, multiple graphs will be drawn directly on top of one another. However, each graph will be grouped individually, making it easy to separate them inside AI (just pick them up and move them).

Examples:

set term aifm
set term aifm 22
set size 0.7,1.4; set term aifm color "Times-Roman" 14

amiga

The amiga terminal, for Commodore Amiga computers, allows the user to plot either to a screen (default), or, if Kickstart 3.0 or higher is installed, to a window on the current public screen. The font and its size can also be selected.

Syntax:

set terminal amiga {screen | window} {"< fontname >"} {< fontsize >}

The default font is 8-point "topaz".

The screen option uses a virtual screen, so it is possible that the graph will be larger than the screen.

apollo

The apollo terminal driver supports the Apollo Graphics Primitive Resource with rescaling after window resizing. It has no options.

If a fixed-size window is desired, the gpr terminal may be used instead.

Terminal project is a modern terminal emulator for the Unix/Linux desktop - primarly for the Xfce desktop environment.
We developed it because we saw the need for a lightweight and easy to use terminal emulator in the Xfce desktop environment, that doesnt require the user to install the GNOME plattform, but still provides a worthy alternative to the GNOME terminal emulator.
Enhancements:
- Add a new "Paste Selection" action to the "Edit" menu, which pastes the contents of the PRIMARY selection (#2242).
- Accept drops from the Thunar path bar (#2284).
- Fix installation in Win32 platforms (#2433).
- Fix incorrect english in usage text (#2381).
- Fix incorrectly handled SIGPIPE (#2349).
- Updated translations: Michal Varady (cs), Benedikt Meurer (de), Jarbas Araujo Jr. (eo), Piarres Beobide (eu), Jari Rahkonen (fi), Maximilian Schleiss (fr), Szymon Ka and #322;asz (pl), Adriano Winter Bess (pt_BR), Andrey Fedoseev (ru)

Multi Gnome Terminal is an enhanced version of gnome-terminal, with many powerful new features and extensions. The most notable enhancement is the ability to run multiple terminals within the same window.
Each terminal may be accessed by its "tab", through keyboard shortcuts, or menu selections. Inactive terminals provide an alert when the buffer changes by changing the color of the tab labels.
Other enhancements include a toolbar, a buttonbar, flexible command options to launch new terminals, tabs, and shells from either the GUI or command line, customizable key bindings for MGT functions and other uses, font shadowing, the ability to "split" terminals so that each window can simultaneously multiple terminals, the ability to "view" or "bond" terminals with other terminals, and various other improvements
Main features:
- Multiple terminals may be opened within the same Window.
- Each terminal Window is "Tabbed" for easy navigation.
- The terminal Window may be "split" vertically and/or horizontally. And also unsplit, or the split terminal can be moved to its own "Tab", or even another Window.
- Terminals may be "bonded" so that the output of a command in one terminal is echoed to all the "bonded" terminals.
- Terminals may be moved from one Multi Gnome Terminal Window to another.
- Notification that an inactive terminal buffer has changed, or is in the process of changing, via colors on Tab labels.
- Extensive keyboard shortcuts for most Multi Gnome Terminal features, and configurable key bindings for these features and other uses.
- Shading, tinting and psuedo-transparency of the Multi Gnome Terminal Window background.
- Gamma corrrection and contrast controls for background pixmaps.
- Configurable "Commands" for initializing new terminals, accessible from within the Multi Gnome Terminal GUI interface, or as command line options.
- Adds a Toolbar and Buttonbar, which can be disabled like the other GUI components. The Toolbar can be repositioned too.
- Search the scrollback buffer.
- Font "shadowing" for better contrast on transparent or pixmapped backgrounds.
- Improved terminal emulation capabilities, including support for VT52.
- Improved support for launching URLs direct from the terminal Window.
- A flexible command line for creating new Windows and Tabs.
- Bold fonts can be a different font, and different color.
- Support for pseudo-graphics characters (like xterm).
- Greatly improved Class handling (configuration profiles) with many available configuration options.

nautilus-open-terminal project is a nautilus plugin for opening terminals in arbitrary local paths through nautilus.

Simple terminal screensaver (or tss for short) is an attempt to clone and enhance FreeBSDs daemon saver.
Although intended for GNU/Linux, it works fine under FreeBSD and probably a lot of other Unix-based Operating Systems.
Main features:
- VT Locking (Shadow and BSD DB)
- ASCII Mirroring
- Multiple colors in ASCII
- Scrollbox showing uptime
- Random ASCII file selection
- Dynamic object speeds
Enhancements:
- Failed login attempts are now reported to syslogd.

Gnome Terminal Launcher applet reads the profiles from GConf and creates the corresponding menu entry to invoke the gnome-terminal command and its arguments.

If you are a system administrator, perhaps a command line junkie, and you deal with a large number of servers on a daily basis, you may have already created profiles to define the connection characteristics of each server.

Ive also experienced an improvement in usability assigning a different color and icon to a server or group of servers. After a while, you can quicly identify which server are you connected to with just a glimpse of the screen.

But this has a drawback, the only way to open a terminal is from another terminal unless youve already created launchers for the specific profiles.

To provide a cleaner solution. Ive create the gnome-terminal-launcher applet that reads the profiles from GConf and creates the corresponding menu entry to invoke the gnome-terminal command and its arguments.

Term::ANSIMenu is an infrastructure for creating menus in ANSI capable terminals.

SYNOPSIS

use Term::ANSIMenu;
my $menu = Term::ANSIMenu->new(
width => 40,
help => [[, &standard_help],
[hint 1, &help_item],
[ undef, &standard_help],
[hint 3, undef]
],
title => title,
items => [[1, First menu item, &exec_item],
[2, This string is just too long
to fit in a normal terminal
and thus it will be clipped.],
[3, , sub { system "man man" }]
],
status => status,
prompt => prompt: );

$menu->print_menu();
while (my $key = $menu->read_key()) {
last unless defined $menu->do_key($key);
$menu->update_status() if $key eq S;
$menu->update_status(New status) if $key eq s;
$menu->update_prompt() if $key eq P;
$menu->update_prompt(New prompt: ) if $key eq p;
}
$menu->pos($menu->line_after_menu() + 1, 1);

I wrote this mainly to make live easy on those staff members to whom I delegate tasks. Most of them prefer to use a menu instead of having to type complicated commands. To them its a faster and safer way of working (we all know about typos dont we...).

By using this module you can create menus with only a few lines of code and still have a shipload of features. Need context-sensitive help or a statusbar? Like to use hotkeys? Want flashy colors and styles? Its all there. Just fill in the attributes and youre good to go.
