What terminal emulator do you use and why?
Other urls found in this thread:
Xterm. It has yet to be surpassed.
urxvt because st doesn't support images.
Konsole
Because Konqi is cute!
urxvt because it sucks less than everything else
Terminator. I like the split window feature.
>konsole
I am on KDE and lazy to go for something else.
Windows Command Processor because it came preinstalled.
Terminus, because it looks kewl
st, it just werks
This is not true
Kitty
Standard macOS terminal, sometimes iTerm2.
Physical one.
st
>tfw too stupid to use a terminl
This. I would also accept emacs ansi-term.
Terminology
because it's well made.
Termux with Hacker's Keyboard
urxvt because I cant be assed to configure st
not that user but st doesnt support the shitty w3m image hack as good as urxvt, it also cant run daemonized so ends up using more resources while having less features than urxvt. I wanted to enjoy st, done my best for a while, but its just utter garbage compared to any decent terminal like urxvt
I use a real terminal, because I'm not a child.
on windows, i use cmder. on linux, i use whatever the fuck comes with linux, because on linux it's all the same fucking shit.

HTerm is pretty nice if you have to use windows
What is a terminal emulator guys??
It is a program that emulates the function of a dumb terminal on your PC.
It is mainly used to connect to stuff over Serial (Rs232) like routers switches and other Systems.
konsole + tmux is based
Lxterminal + tmux is comfy
The one that comes with mint, because for my ocasional needs its sufficient.
Nice meme.
The daemon alone uses ~10x more resources than a single instance of st.
This means you need ~10 st terminals open before you end up "using more resources." Even then, if one terminal crashes the others will still work, if you crash the daemon all terminals crash.
Especially since you should be using tmux for scrollback anyways, why do you need multiple terminals open?
conemu windows , guake linux
Oh, much obliged sir.
Tilix
Urxvt exists, faggots.
Tell me again, what does Xterm's original README say?
This, st is really just crippled garbage in disguise under the "minimal" meme.
If you want to use a minimal, lightweight terminal, use Urxvt. At least it's usable.

iTerm2

Jesus hyper.is
Urxvt because St is not in the official arch linux packages and I dont touch the AUR even with a 20 meters long pole no matter what
Based and /thread.
Urxvt
AUR is fine, just read the packagebuild
Terminator. Though it's quite ugly, it's still pretty useful compared to other terminals.
urxvt
Because it's the one I spent time configuring.
>I dont touch the AUR
mainlet
dumb
Why in the fuck would you use arch in this case?
Konsole cause it's good enough I guess, hasn't given me reason to replace it yet.
urxvt because I bandwagoned when I saw everyone else using it
Terminal.app on Macs, Konsole/Yakuake on KDE, Termite on GNOME or tilers, Termux on Android.
Based.
Guake
xterm because 1. low keystroke latency and 2. ranger image preview works on it
konsole + yakuake
i like drop down emulators and have sudo installed so i rarely need to log into root
Based.
I like sakura for when I can't be arsed to make urxvt usable.
Tilix
Just works, modern and has easy ways to split the terminal
Alacritty because I fell for the rust meme.
It's actually nothing special, full of glitches and it lacks some basic futures like scrolling through selection.
Xterm
Simple as.
Modified st with tmux. Plus screen for connecting to serial devices.
I, for one, have a job and I only use Putty.
/thread
>don't touch AUR
Pussy
lole what
The absolute state of this board
xfce4-terminal
konsole and yakuake since i'm running kde right now.
>AUR is fine, just read the packagebuild
Why is the packagebuild enough? Can't a malicious entity insert a virus in the code of the application that is compiled?
Putty
gnome-terminal
konsole because file drag and drop
terminal.app
I write all my commands on a sheet of paper and then I fax it to an employee in India which proceeds to SSH in my machine, I don't use any DE so I just use what gentoo comes by default.
mobaxterm
Emacs
>ctrl f
>no termite
Termite + tmux, anything else is just pure retard.
>gpu accelerated yet doesn't support images
>vte
I just don't get it.
nice, always wanted to wire up a serial terminal to a modern linux install.
google it?
konsole & yakuake in KDE
sakura elsewhere
software to emulate cloud connected typewriter
>be me
I'm glad you cleared that up, would've been confusing without that part
We're in Jow Forums, retard.
cmder on win, xterm in linux
whatever comes pre installed, otherwise tty1
Whichever one is on my computer because they're all the same from a user standpoint.
Just kidding urxvt
This but on OpenBSD.
>The one that comes with mint, because for my ocasional needs its sufficient.
+1 on this
I dont even know what it is other than some gnome derivative on MATE. But I like to use either vim or emacs as the console editor and all the fancy terminals have key bindings that interfere with both vim and emacs. Like if I need to make separate windows I can do that in both vim and emacs, I dont need a special terminal for that.
whatever comes with the OS
>no keyboard
Step it up and get a minitel
Gnome terminal, because it comes with Gnome and I have no reason to switch
Konsole, because it ships with kde. Xterm otherwise.
Putty
xterm + terminator. The latter for tiling.
