wlterm: the native Wayland terminal emulator
[Development] Posted Sep 27, 2012 14:49 UTC (Thu) by corbet
Any self-respecting graphical display system must naturally offer a proper
terminal emulator. Wayland now has one in the form of "wlterm," which is
meant to be both a fully capable terminal emulator and a development tool.
"We need more independent clients written from scratch that try to
find bugs in the wayland-client API. If we use toytoolkit all the
time, we will probably not find them. wlterm draws its own decoration
and does not depend on any demo-code from the weston repository. So
its nice to check whether new weston features are working and how they
behave."
