Re: The Grumpy Editor's guide to terminal emulators

Hi!
 
After reading the "The Grumpy Editor's guide to terminal emulators" I felt
I had to mention the terminal emulator I use on a daily basis: dzt.
 
dzt has tabs, color, fonts, decent scrolling, selectable profiles, visual
alerts on tabs with activity, and several user-configurable hotkeys for
dzt actions (eg: next tab, previous tab, new tab, close tab, etc..). The
best part of dzt is that each tab consumes about as much memory as an rxvt
terminal session. When coupled with XFCE, you can have a stylish and fast
desktop in really slim environments.
 
Sadly, the only drawbacks are that dzt seems to be not maintained anymore
(or, as the authors states "Development is very sporadic") and is a GTK-1
based application. Which is a shame because is it one of the nicest
terminal emulators I've used. Its homepage (with download links) can be found
at: http://dzt.sourceforge.net/
 
Please try it out, I think you'll like it.
 
-n... a grumpy sysadmin.
