Welcome to Terminator's documentation!
|
||
|
|
======================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is the beginnings of a manual for Terminator. Sometimes it is not always
|
||
|
|
clear just how many little shortcuts and features there are in Terminator. This
|
||
|
|
guide hopes to reduce the confusion.

A quick word on style. I have none. 😃 I have an casual way of talking and writing,
|
||
|
|
and a strange sense of humour. I also tend to use random pop-culture references
|
||
|
|
a lot, but often in ways that make no sense. If this is a problem you are
|
||
|
|
entitled to a refund of the money you paid to me to write this... 😎

What is Terminator
|
||
|
|
------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At its simplest Terminator is a terminal emulator like xterm, gnome-terminal,
|
||
|
|
konsole, etc. At its most complex it lets you fly... metaphorically at least.
|
||
|
|
Take a look at the following list:

|
- Arrange terminals in a grid
|
||
|
|
- Tabs
|
||
|
|
- Drag and drop re-ordering of terminals
|
||
|
|
- Lots of keyboard shortcuts
|
||
|
|
- Save multiple layouts and profiles via GUI preferences editor
|
||
|
|
- Simultaneous typing to arbitrary groups of terminals
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
and lots more...

In case it's not obvious this is faked up. I use more complex setups,
|
||
|
|
but I'm not putting real work into the documentation.
