Split terminal windows with Terminator for Linux

Split terminal windows with Terminator for Linux

While I personally prefer a tabbed style terminal emulator, I can see the appeal of this setup, especially if you live in the CLI.

NOTE to OpenSUSE users
If you are using Leap 42.1 or higher, ignore the instructions at the link and just type "zypper in terminator" from a root shell, or find the terminator package in YaST2's software manager.

  1. The only reason I ever used a GUI was to place my terminals and this looks like perfection.

  3. Yeah, I love Terminator. It handles tabs too, and you can group terminals to broadcast commands to entire groups at once.

  5. Terminator is very nice. Showed it to my brother a couple of years ago. Not long ago we screen shared and I asked if that was terminator. Apparently he converted right after I showed it to him and he's never looked back.

    Good stuff.
