I've got a script that will open a new tab in the OS X Terminal application and I'm trying to add support for iTerm2. Unfortunately, the methods to open tabs in the two terminal emulators are different.

I'm looking to build a Terminal Emulator from scratch over the summer as a personal project, but I'm sorta struggling on where to even start. I tried looking up what building a terminal emulator entails, but I can't really find anything.

The terminal is a ubiquitous platform that has been fairly stable for many years. There are plenty of resources out there for understanding its inner workings, but most of them are either fairly arcane or offer deep knowledge about a very specific area. This post aims to bridge this gap by offering a gentle and broad introduction to the terminal emulator as a platform for development.

While this is aimed at those new to developing terminal applications, I tried to go into enough depth in certain areas to keep things interesting for old terminal hounds as well. If you found a mistake in this post, or feel something has been over-simplified or hand-waved away, feel free to hit me up on Twitter.

I've used to run lots of small Unix CLI applications (e.g. mutt), but I grew disappointed with their lack of composability. Ever since, I've been moving all of my computing into 4 platforms: Emacs (where I do everything except web browsing), Firefox, Unix (low level plumbing on xterm terminal emulator) and X (basically just XMonad to control all other applications).

Secondly, xterm integration with the rest of my system is quite clunky. Especially copy-pasting. I'm always inteding to transition to eshell, or screen / tmux for better keyboard interaction and a faster X11 terminal (like Urxvt or alacritty). What option do you recommend? Eshell and an external terminal for occasional ncurses usage?

Honestly I've had almost no issues with it since I started using neovim, having some bash scripts that use nvr to interact with the same instance I'm running the terminal in has been very productive.

Like many of you, my terminal emulator is probably my most used piece of software. My day begins with getting a cup of coffee, opening up Slack and iTerm 2, my terminal emulator for years. iTerm 2 has an incredible number of features, almost too many to list. Here are some of my most-used features just off the top of my head:

I have very few complaints with iTerm 2, but I'm always open to try something new. Someone on Twitter told me about Warp, a new terminal emulator written in Rust with some very interesting design patterns. I don't know if its the right terminal for me but it definitely solves problems in a new way.

This is a topic that can stir a lot of feelings for people. Terminal emulators are a tool that people invest a lot of time into, moving them from job to job. However in general I would say these are the baseline features I would expect from a modern terminal emulator:

So why am I reviewing a terminal emulator missing most of these features or having them present in only limited configurations? Because by breaking away from this list of commonly agreed-upon "good features" they've managed to make something that requires almost no customization to get started. Along the way, they've added some really interesting features I've never seen before.

From launch it wants you to know this is not your normal terminal emulator. It is trying to get you to do things the warp way from minute 1, which is great. The Command Palette is a lightning fast dropdown of all the Warp commands you might need. Search commands is just bringing up the previous commands from your history.

Executing commands in Warp is unlike anything I've ever seen before. Every command is broken into a Block which is a total rethink of the terminal. Instead of focusing primarily on the manipulation of text, you are focused on each command run as an independent unit you can manipulate through the UI. This is me trying to show what it looks like:

If you are just starting out on the Mac as a development machine and want to use a terminal emulator, this is maybe the fastest to start with. It comes with a lot of the quality of life improvements you normally need to install a bunch of different pieces of software for. Also if you teach or end up needing to share a lot of code as you go, this "Sharing" functionality could be a real game-changer.

However if you, like me, spend your time mostly editing large blocks of text with Vim in the terminal, you aren't going to get a ton out of Warp right now. I just don't have a workflow that is going to really benefit from most of this stuff and while I appreciate their great tab completion, most of the commands I use are muscle memory at this point and have been for years.

The x-terminal-emulator does not exist in OS X. It would rely on an alternatives system, which simply doesn't work that way on OS X. Instead, it defines default applications for certain MIME types, URI schemes, or file types. Simply put, that is.

It is actually not a bad idea to provide an xterm or equivalent for those rare cases when you can get an xserver up with a terminal to fix something you broke. I would only mention it because I have done it, lol.

I thought it came automatically via xorg, but I now see that xorg's dependency is on xterm OR x-terminal-emulator, which is satisfied by terminator. I guess that means that if terminator wasn't installed then xorg would demand to have some other terminal available, xterm by default.

But if terminator wasn't around, xorg would fail to install without some terminal. It would call for xterm automatically, wouldn't it? Or are you thinking of the case where someone uninstalls terminator without installing something else? In that case I guess xorg would be uninstalled too.

My preferred text editor and terminal are Neovim and Kitty, respectively. My WM is Hyprland. When executing `xdg-open `, it opens nvim in the same terminal window.

However, when running this command in a run prompt, e. g. rofi, nothing happens. Additionally, when I try to open /usr/share/applications/nvim.desktop from a graphical file manager, e. g. Thunar, there is the error message:

It seems that you're right, regarding Thunar. However, doing this trick with rofi doesn't work on X either. As far as I understand, xdg-open works if the command is being put into a terminal, because then it gets opened there. But with rofi, there is none so it doesn't know what do to.

Maybe it exo that is misconfigured to run Terminal Emulator.

Here is a work around : look at the Properties of your Terminal's launcher. By default the command it run is something like this :Ā 

exo-open --launch TerminalEmulator

Put the real path to terminal (/usr/bin/terminal or /usr/local/bin/terminal or ...) instead.

Hi my fellow i3 users,

I just finished a new Manjaro-i3 installation and wanted to change the from i3 used Terminal Emulator. The default installed Emulator is urxvt. i3 by default will start 3-sensible-terminal, wich will try to open the in $TERMINAL stored terminal emulator. The documentation to i3-sensible-terminal says one can change the system variable $TERMINAL in order to set the preferred terminal emulator.

Hi!

I have recently installed the Budgie DE on Arch Linux, and I'm really loving it! My terminal emulator of choice is urxvt, and I try to set this up as the default terminal emulator to start terminal applications from the Budgie menu. I have managed to set up the default terminal for the Nemo file manager through gsettings for the Cinnamon stuff, but I couldn't find a way to apply the same default settings for the Budgie desktop. What I tried:

JustinĀ 

Hi!

That was the setting I had when I installed the Budgie desktop and Gnome settings from the Arch repos, too. I didn't install Gnome terminal, I only installed the urxvt.

Now I have installed the Gnome terminal, and now the icon for Vim in the Budgie menu opens vim in the Gnome terminal. Even though the Gnome setting didn't change:

JustinĀ 

Thank you for the reply!

If you change your terminal emulator to something else, could you please tell me what the output for

$ gsettings get org.gnome.dektop.default-applications.terminal exec

is? If it stays gnome-terminal, than we can safely assume that Budgie has a different way of determining what the default terminal is for the Budgie menu.

Thank you for the quick answer! I pulled down the pantheon-terminal from the repos to test it, and it doesn't work, just as it doesn't work with urxvt.

It seems to me, whatever the gsettings are, the Budgie desktop on my system just uses (or wants to use) the Gnome terminal. My Budgie desktop package is 10.5-1.Ā 

As it seems to work on Solus for you, I have no idea what to do with this issue. Can this be a bug and should I report it as such on the Budgie desktop github page? Or is there any configuration file I should be looking at to find what's the problem?

I always used the default terminal that came with the DE; until last year. When I switched to i3wm, I found that the client side decorations in gnome-terminal kinda ruined the minimal look, and were unnecessary anyways since window management is done using keyboard. I switched to Alacritty. It fits my use - a minimal terminal emulator that works.

A weak (or free) terminal emulator can disrupt the user workflow, creating discomfort, and slowing processes. Further, many vendors rigorously pursue license compliance, auditing users over each additional seat.
