Terminator

This is a little python script to give me lots of terminals in a single window, saving me valuable laptop screen space otherwise wasted on window decorations and not quite being able to fill the screen with terminals.
|

Right now it will just create four terminals in a single window and they will (to some degree) mirror the settings of your default gnome-terminal profile in gconf. Eventually this will be extended and improved to offer profile selection per-terminal, configuration thereof and the ability to alter the number of terminals and save meta-profiles.

It's quite shamelessly based on code in the vte-demo.py (included) from the vte widget package, and on the gedit terminal plugin (which was fantastically useful).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
vte-demo.py is not my code and is copyright its original author. While it does not contain any specific licensing information in it, the VTE package appears to be licenced under GPL v2.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
the gedit terminal plugin is part of the gedit-plugins package, which is licenced under GPL v2 or later.
|

I am thus licensing Terminator as GPL v2, however, I am not including the "or later" clause as i do not wish to hand unlimited control in perpetuity to FSF. I respect their work to date, but do not wish to give them carte blanche control over my software in the future. If you require Terminator under a newer version of the GPL, please contact me.
