Konsole also has tab renaming, but, the more, the merrier

One thing I'd like to see in this is
A. ability to set the colors
B. ability to set the font
C. ability to set the scrollback buffer size...
other than that.. very nice!
Maybe pseudo (or real!) transparency too... but... I dont think you want to start duplicating gnome-terminal  |

Does this terminal emulator read ~.Xdefaults? if not can it be implimented to read Xterm options in .Xdefaults?

I got an error when I tried to emerge this:
| Code: | g++ -c -Wall `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --cflags` `pkg-config vte --cflags` -Os -ansi -fvisibility=hidden -fvisibility-inlines-hidden gterm.cpp

Oh crap, I forgot I left those in there. Change the line
| Code: | # For running normally
CFLAGS = -Wall `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --cflags` `pkg-config vte --cflags` -Os -ansi -fvisibility=hidden -fvisibility-inlines-hidden |
to
| Code: | # For running normally
CFLAGS = -Wall `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --cflags` `pkg-config vte --cflags` -Os -ansi |
I was testing if I could get any flags that made bugs, guess I forgot to remove the last few. |

A. Probably coming. I've not done any commandline parsing yet
B. *
C. *
I'll stick in Pseudo trans when I do the three above things, since VTE supports it natively, but real transparency will probably have to wait until either it's done in VTE or I write my own terminal widget (looking more attractive every day).
I've been spending time trying to get memory usage down, but appears to be down as far as I can get it until I write a new term widget. VTE takes about 500k for each terminal (konsole takes 50k), and I plan to rip some code out of something like rxvt, combine it with the real transparency from konsole, and making it a compile-time option.

It doesn't, as far as I know - would be an interesting side-project for the new widget implementation. |

New ebuild, new tarball, new ways to save!
| Code: | # $Header: $
inherit eutils flag-o-matic
DESCRIPTION="Lightweight GTK2 terminal emulator"
HOMEPAGE=""
SRC_URI="http://gterm.php-scripter.com/${P}.tar.bz2"
LICENSE="GPLv2"
SLOT="0"
KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~x86"
IUSE=""
DEPEND="virtual/x11
>=x11-libs/gtk+-2.6
>=x11-libs/vte-0.11.11-r2"
src_compile() {
emake || die
}
src_install() {
mkdir -p ${D}usr/bin/
cp ${S}/gterm ${D}usr/bin/gterm
}
|
Save to gterm-0.2.ebuild, and enjoy. Fair warning: I had to bump the dependency to gtk+-2.6, since the commandline parsing was apparently introduced then. Sorry, but I'm just too lazy to learn a new way to do that at midnight (if somebody wants to rewrite it for 2.4 folks, I'll #ifdef it in).
It now has transparency, antialias mode selection, font selection, foreground and backround color selection, and scrollback line selection. Also, a nify --help mode thanks to GTK. |

Hi, nice project.  I have been playing with vte off and on to use with porthole using it's python interface.
I have been having a problem trying to get a signal back from bash when a command has completed. I have been trying to use the interactive session so that it could su, chroot, etc..
Do you know if it is possible to extract thoses signals from vte's c interface?
I am also interested in your own terminal widget if you go that route.

Lets say that you wanted to get the output from "emerge -pv foo bar". I would do this:
| Code: |
// You should connect signal handlers for text_scrolled and child_exited //
// Whenever the text scrolls up N lines, get the bottom N lines and add them to a global buffer //
// When the command has finished, child_exited will be emitted and you can parse the buffer //
gchar* packages = "foo bar"; // Get this however you want //
gchar* emerge_options = "-pv"; // example //
gchar* command_string = g_strconcat("bash -c \"emerge ", emerge_options, packages, "\"", NULL);
// At this point, command_string is what you want to invoke //
vte_terminal_fork_command(VTE_TERMINAL(terminal_widget), command_string, NULL, NULL, NULL, false, false, false);
// Cleanup in aisle 6 //
g_free(command_string);
|
You'll have to look in the source code of VTE for text_scrolled signal handling, since they didn't bother to put it in the documentation. |

It's official - I'm a dumbass when I'm tired...
I was doing some testing, and commented out the code to update tab/window titles. Then I forgot to un-comment the code - thus, titles are stuck with the defaults. So, you'll want to grab the new ebuild (0.2-r1) and save it to your overlay, then get the patch (gtw_window_comments.patch) and save it to your overlay files (eg, on mine it is /usr/local/portage/x11-terms/gterm/files).
The site to grab that stuff from is http://gterm.php-scripter.com/ |

Okay, I tried this and i like it. Does what it is supposed to do. Curious however how the font gets set and if you can set a size.
i tried
Nothing happens. Am I doing it wrong? |

It needs the full name of a font. Try gterm -f "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono Bold 11" |

It needs the full name of the font, and optionally the size. For example,
| Quote: | | gterm -f "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono" |
or
| Quote: | | gterm -f "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono 12" |
or
Quotes are only required for fonts with more than 1 word, or if you want to specify a size and font together. Putting them on is a good idea though, since it can't hurt. |

you forgot the ${FILESDIR}/ for the epatch. It fails without.

Wow, this is just what I wanted, a simple GTk based term with tabs! Thanks!
Anyway, on with the the obligatory feature requests:- Any danger of a config file? I know there aren't many options yet, but it would be nice to have set of global (and user specific) options
- Is it possible to have a shortcut key for a new tab? I'm thinking ctrl-t (same as in Firefox) would be best
- Similarly, either the ability to middle click on a tab to close it, or a close button on each tab. I don't like using menus!

yes I really like this project. It is going to be my main terminal. I really hope you continue to work on it and add lots of features

1) Eventually, I want to be able to use .Xdefaults to set options automatically. I have to find out how first though...
2) It did at first, but it was interfering with some applications, so I removed it.
3) I plan to put a toggleable toolbar on with such things as New/Close Tab/Window. It's doubtful that you'll ever be able to close a tab by middle-clicking on it, since GTK+ won't tell me when that happens. If I wanted to do so, I would need to hack GTK+ itself. |
