== NAME
// ~/.config/terminator/config - the config file for Terminator terminal emulator
config - TODO
== DESCRIPTION
This file contains the configuration for *terminator*(1).
Terminator manages its configuration file via the ConfigObj library to
combine flexibility with clear, human editable files. +
Terminator offers a full GUI preferences editor which automatically
saves its config file so you don't need to write a config file by hand.
== FILE LOCATION
Normally the config file will be *~/.config/terminator/config*, but it
may be overridden with *$XDG_CONFIG_HOME* (in which case it will be
*$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/terminator/config*).
== FILE FORMAT
This is what a Terminator config file should look like:
TODO
== global_config
These are the options Terminator currently supports in the
*global_config* section:
=== Window Behavior & Appearance
// --- Window behavior ---
*window_state* = _string_::
Default value: *normal* +
Control how the Terminator window opens.
'normal' means it opens normally.
'maximise' means it opens in a maximised state.
'fullscreen' means it opens in a fullscreen state.
'hidden' means it stays hidden.
*always_on_top* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
TODO
*sticky* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
TODO
*hide_on_lose_focus* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
TODO
*hide_from_taskbar* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
TODO
*geometry_hinting* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
If True the window will resize in step with font sizes, if False it will
follow pixels.
*suppress_multiple_term_dialog* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
TODO
// --- Window appearance ---
*borderless* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
Control whether the Terminator window will be started without window
borders.
=== Tab Behavior & Appearance
*tab_position* = _string_::
Default value: *top* +
Specify where tabs are placed.
Can be any of: 'top', 'left', 'right', 'bottom', 'hidden'.
If this is set to 'hidden', the tab bar will not be shown. Hiding the
tab is not recommended, as it can be very confusing.
*close_button_on_tab* = _boolean_::
Default value: : *True* +
If set to True, tabs will have a close button on them.
// what is this???
*scroll_tabbar* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
If set to True, the tab bar will not fill the width of the window.
The titlebars of the tabs will only take as much space as is necessary
for the text they contain. Except, that is, if the tabs no longer fit
the width of the window - in that case scroll buttons will appear to
move through the tabs.
*homogeneous_tabbar* = _boolean_::
Default value: *True* +
TODO
=== Terminal Behavior & Appearance
// --- Terminal behavior ---
*focus* = _string_::
Default value: *click* +
Control how focus is given to terminals.
'click' means the focus only moves to a terminal after you click in it.
'sloppy' means the focus will follow the mouse pointer.
'system' means the focus will match that used by a GNOME window manager.
*always_split_with_profile* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
Control whether splits/tabs will continue to use the profile of their
peer terminal. If set to False, they will always use the default profile.
*link_single_click* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
TODO
// --- Copy & Paste behavior ---
*putty_paste_style* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
If set to True, right-click will paste the Primary selection,
while middle-click will popup the context menu.
*putty_paste_style_source_clipboard* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
TODO
*disable_mouse_paste* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
TODO
*smart_copy* = _boolean_::
Default value: *True* +
If set to True, and there is no selection, the shortcut is allowed to
pass through. This is useful for overloading Ctrl-C to copy a selection,
or send the SIGINT to the current process if there is no selection.
If False, the shortcut does not pass through at all, and the SIGINT does
not get sent.
*clear_select_on_copy* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
TODO
// --- Terminal appearance ---
*handle_size* = _integer_::
Default value: *1* +
Control the width of the separator between terminals.
Anything outside the range 0-20 (inclusive) will be ignored and use your
default theme value.
*inactive_color_offset* = _float_::
Default value: *0.8* +
Specify how much to reduce the color values of fonts in terminals that
do not have focus.
*inactive_bg_color_offset* = _float_::
Default value: *1.0* +
Specify how much to reduce the color values of the background in
terminals that do not have focus.
*cell_width* = _float_::
Default value: *1.0* +
TODO
*cell_height* = _float_::
Default value: *1.0* +
TODO
*title_at_bottom* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
TODO
=== Miscellaneous
*dbus* = _boolean_::
Default value: *True* +
Control whether or not Terminator will load its DBus server.
When this server is loaded, running Terminator multiple times will cause
the first Terminator process to open additional windows.
If this configuration item is set to False, or the python dbus module is
unavailable, running Terminator multiple times will run a separate
Terminator process for each invocation.
*extra_styling* = _boolean_::
Default value: *True* +
TODO
*broadcast_default* = _string_::
Default value: *group* +
Specify default broadcast behavior.
Can be any of: 'all', 'group', 'off'.
// try_posix_regexp ???
*use_custom_url_handler* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
If set to True, URL handling will be given over entirely to the program
specified by 'custom_url_handler'.
*custom_url_handler* = _string_::
Path to a program which accepts a URI as an argument and does something
relevant with it. This option is ignored unless 'use_custom_url_handler'
is set to True.
*case_sensitive* = _boolean_::
Default value: *True* +
TODO
*invert_search* = _boolean_::
Default value: *False* +
TODO
*enabled_plugins* = _list of strings_::
Default value: *['LaunchpadBugURLHandler', 'LaunchpadCodeURLHandler', 'APTURLHandler']* +
A list of plugins which should be loaded by default. All other plugin
classes will be ignored.
== profiles
These are the options Terminator currently supports in the *profiles*
section. Each profile should be its own subsection with a header in the
format *+[[name]]+*.
