offlineKey MasterI generally believe in trying something yourself then deciding if it's good enough to meet your needs.
But to add to mojo's list: Opacity Support, Different colour palettes for elements, ability to set the colours, support for multiple input methods, the ability to add a background to the terminal, several visual customization options, full screen option and most importantly, a scroll bar.
Personally, the ability to scroll and copy and paste is the most important functions a terminal needs (and which xterm doesn't provide properly).

A joke! You trumpet out that you do not need it. For me the copy-and-paste ability is important, too many mistakes with xterm under Slitaz. But I do not want to laugh about beginners who want fancy surfaces. I know from my job that 99% of all people judge the quality of any software from their estimation: how handsome does it look like?
Think of the screenlets example here! Youngsters want it, it is cool looking... ok, some tolerance for that attitude is not bad.Posted 1 year ago #
