Different terminal emulators under X

Hi!
I'm looking for a replacement of my gnome-terminal....I like it, but now, when I am using elightenment, I wan't to get rid of everything that is not absolutly needed (each time I start the gnome-terminal alot of extra (needed) programs start (such as bonobo-activation-server and more)...
So I am looking for a new terminal. The features I want is:
* Color support
* Copy/Cut and Paste (with my mouse right click)
* transparency (although I can use composite so it isn't neccessary)
* Tabs seems to be a nice feature (saw it on konsole KDE)
I have tried Eterm, Aterm and obviosly Xterm...none seem to fit me...(might be though that I cannot configure them?!)
if anyone have any suggestions please post them

I think urxvt is da best, but as phrak says there is no clipboard support in those terminals that are written in pure xlib, you have to use middle click for pasting and your editors features for cutting,
here is pkgbuild, hopefully some tu will place it in community repo soon,

Fonts in terminal emulators (terminal from xfce)

I always have problems with fonts in terminal emulators, because I can never choose good one.
Now I found perfect terminal emulator, it's called Terminal.
I have Arch on three computers at home - two workstations and one server.
On one workstation I am able to use "Luxi Mono" font in Terminal.
On another workstation there is no such font available in Terminal (but it is in xfontsel), and all other fonts sux.
I found this font in /usr/share/fonts/Type1/fonts.cache-1. This file is available on both workstations and /usr/share/fonts/Type1 is in both xorg.conf.
Do you have any tips how to enable more fonts in Terminal? Do you have any favourite terminal emulator font which looks good and has iso-8859-2 encoding?

Jacek Poplawski wrote:It is strange, but I changed it to "no" and now Luxi Mono works
On my computer is strange because when I change no to yes and than again to no, "no" doesn't works anymore.

Windows 8.1 X modem Terminal Emulators

Hi,
Does anyone know which terminal emulators with X modem transfer capabilities work with Windows 8.1 please? I am struggling to find any that work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Steph

There are a few comments on forums in support of
TeraTerm
If you are unable to get that running in Windows 8.1 you may want to look into virtualization. With
Client Hyper-V you can provide a virtual environment in which to run at terminal that is no longer supported. For example, you could run a Windows XP environment with HyperTerminal.
Note: Windows XP support has ended as of April 8, 2014.

Weechat + vte based terminal emulators

I want to try using roxterm for a while but for some reason vte based terminal emulators (at least roxterm and gnome-terminal), I am unable to use the shortcut Alt+Left or Alt+Right to switch windows/channels in weechat-curses.
When doing Alt+Left it displays '3D' and Alt+Right displays '3C' but it will not switch to the next window in the list.
I'm sure there has to be an option somewhere to toggle this behaviour but I'm not sure what it could be.

preferences -> edit current profile -> keyboard.
Simply disable the hotkeys there

Different Terminal operation methods

I'm writing a report on my blog on some Terminal operations I performed recently to rescue a drive that was locked and with corrupt ACL. I want to get some things straight in my mind before I spread errouneous info.
When using a command like:
sudo cd /Volumes/Media
sudo find . -flags uchg -exec chflags nouchg {} \;
Which as I understand it will find all locked files on /Volumes/Media and unlock them
or using a command like:
sudo chflags -R nouchg /Volumes/Media
Which as I understand it will unlock ALL files recursively from the given directory, which effectively does the same thing as above.
What is the functional or operational difference between those two methods? Is there a safer or more preferable method?
Also, what is the difference between find . and find /
The Apple Discussions have been greatly helpful the past few weeks as I've learned more and more about how to get things done in Terminal. Thanks to all who share their knowledge here. I want to make sure I understand things fully before I make incorrect assumptions.
cheers

As as been explained above the
sudo cd ...
command is useless. Frank Caggiano has explained why the sudo cd does not work as you think, but if you do not understand what he said, you need to come back and ask, as the concept of what happens iin a subprocess stays in a subprocess. Things like your current working directory and shell variable and environment variable changes in a subprocess do not affect the originating shell (namely the one issuing the command prompt). If you do not understant this, you will get tripped up again and again in the shell.
I'm assuming you have access to /Volume/Media, you cd without the sudo. If for some reason you cannot cd to /Volume/Media, then you will need to take a totally different approach.
etresoft has mentioned that the 'find' approach will only modify the files that are locked, where as the chflags -R approach will blindly modify every file. On the surface this may not appear to affect the end result, but the chflags -R approach will also change the ctime (Change Time) of every file, where as the 'find' approach will only change the ctime for the files that need changing.
The change to ctime may cause an incremental backup utility to backup every file in /Volume/Media instead of just the few files that have had their flags changed.
Also, what is the difference between find . and find /
. in Unix file systems is the current directory. .. is the parent directory ../../ is the grandparent directory, etc...
/ is the top level of the boot file system. From here every other file accessible via the operating system is somewhere under /
As has been explained, both . and / can be dangerous. . is dangerous if you are not where you think you are, such as the case of using sudo cd no actually placing you where you think are going. / is dangerous as depending on what you are doing with the 'find' command you can make some non-reversable file system modifications.
When playing with 'find' you might want to NOT include -exec until you absolutely know that the 'find' command you are creating spits out exactly what files you need to modify. Or if you want to test with -exec, then use echo first
find . -flags uchg -exec echo chflags nouchg {} \;
where the echo command will display the chflags command that you plan to exeucte, but will not actually change anything. You can then verify that the commands look good and the files being changed are what you expect. You can later either remove the 'echo' or just pipe the command into sh
cd /Volumes/Media
find . -flags uchg -exec echo chflags nouchg {} \; | sudo sh

How to put Terminal tabs under it's window?

Hello everyone. I'd like to move tabs of Terminal.app to bottom of the screen so that tabs are under the terminal window. Is this possible? I've looked through Terminal preferences and googled - found no solution.

No. They removed that functionality as an improvement to iTunes in version 11. I saw one person mentioning making a screen grab of the window and displaying it as an image in Preview while looking at the actual iTunes in another window, but it doesn't quite strike me as being the same...

How do I make more than one different artists go under the same album?

Hey, I've had a little problem lately. I've got an album, with more than one artist in it, and at my iPod touch, the artists are all showing up one by one instead of just one single artist. I want to keep the artists names, but if it can't be solved, I'll take them away and give the album the same artist name.

In iTunes:
select all songs of that specific album > right-click > Get Info > Sorting.
There you can enter the main artist (album artist) of the album. Klick OK.
Now the album should be listed under the main artist although you have different artist in the artist field.
Experiment away and see if it works.

I have this idea - Copying between different terminal directories.

Hi,
I have no idea if a program that does the following exists. The concept is a bit hard to explain but I'll do my best.
Lets say that you have to terminals opened. In terminal 1 you are currently working in ~/build/foobar and in terminal 2 you are working in ~/archiscool/foobar/letshaveadrink/ and you want to copy a file from ~/build/foobar to ~/archiscool/foobar/letshaveadrink. The usual way of doing this would be to type
"[user@host ~/build/foobar/]$ cp foobar ~/archiscool/foobar/letshaveadrink/"
and it is usually very quick to do with completion, but it would be much easier if one could build a script (lets call it "t2dir") that could identify the working dir of terminal 2. Then you'd only have to type
"[user@host~/build/foobar/]$ cp foobar t2dir".
Would it possible to probe terminals for their working directories?

Here's an alternative: use `ls /dev/pts` to get a list of running ttys and present that list to the user and let them choose the destination. That way they won't have to know the "/dev/pts" number of the tty they want to copy to. It will be nice to people who use title-bar-less windows (like me).
#!/bin/sh
# Find out the PIDS of running ttys
PIDS=""
for PTS in $(ls /dev/pts); do
#echo "$PTS"
PID=$(pgrep -nt "pts/$PTS")
#echo "$PID"
if [ $PID != $$ ]; then
PIDS="$PIDS $PID"
fi
done
# Count the PIDS
i=0
for PID in $PIDS; do
i=$(($i + 1))
done
# Behave differently based on number of available destinations
case $i in
0)
echo "No other tty to copy to. Ignoring."
exit 1
1)
DEST=$(pwdx $PIDS)
#echo "$DEST"
echo "Only one possible destination. Copying to $DEST."
exit $(cp "$1" "$DEST")
*) # Many destinations
j=0
for PID in $PIDS; do
j=$(($j + 1))
echo "$j. $(pwdx $PID | sed -r -e's/^[0-9]+: //')"
done
echo "Select destination by entering its number (1, 2, etc.): "
read NUM
if [ $NUM -lt 1 ]; then
echo "Error: there is no number smaller than 1 in the list."
exit 2
elif [ $NUM -gt $j ]; then
echo "Error: there is no number greater than $j in the list."
exit 3
elif [ $NUM -gt 0 ] && [ $NUM -le $j ]; then
k=1
for PID in $PIDS; do
if [ $k -eq $NUM ]; then
DEST="$(pwdx $PID | sed -r -e's/^[0-9]+: //')"
exit $(cp "$1" "$DEST")
fi
k=$(($k + 1))
done
else
echo "Error: cannot understand what you wrote."
exit 4
fi
esac
When in sh, I'm paranoid about spaces and metacharacters and globs and I don't know how to use arrays. I guess this explains the weird structure of the script.
It sucks that it doesn't check for duplicates when listing out possible destinations... I should write this in a more comfortable language like perl. But I should go do some real work now.

Running managed servers from different WL versions under a domain

Hi,
Would it be possible to run managed servers (in non clustered way) from different versions of WebLogic under a single domain, with admin server of higher WebLogic version controlling the domain and the managed servers?
Regards,
Gobi

Hi Gobi,
we can make it run such a way but it may lead to many complication with patch sets.
Few thing work in one environment and other will not so it is not at all recommended way to set such configuration.

Forecasting: Different customer forecasts under one material

I am currently provided with customer forecasts which are used in planning and I input on our SAP system using T.Code MD61 create or MD62 change.
Right now, if two different customers give forecasts for the same Item code they are added together in the forecast.
e.g.
Customer
Item Code
Jan-14
Feb-14
Customer 1&2
Item1
7000
7000
Right now there seems to be no way to keep forecasts for different customers on different lines once one line is active.
How can I set the forecast to look like below?
Customer
Item Code
Jan-14
Feb-14
Customer 1
Item1
5000
5000
Customer 2
Item1
2000
2000

Hi GM,
Post this discussion under SAP ERP Manufacturing - Production Planning (SAP PP)
In MD61 demand is maintained against the material not againt the customer. If you want to maintain the demand and identify the demand specific to customer then use strategy 50 for the FERT material. In that case entire demand eg 7000 can be mantained in MD61. Sales order can be created seperately for customer 1 5000 qty and customer 2 2000 qty. On MD04 screen you can see the customer specfic demand qty which you can convert partially to poduction as required. Incase of strategy 50 once sales order is created then only convertable planned order against the sales order demand gets created upon MRP run. Production will be order based.
Thanks & Regards,

Setup and save different terminal sessions

Hi, all.
I use some terminal-based applications, i.e.TeX-related unix utilities, and MySQL on Snow Leopard (latest version, I suppose).
I like to set a different screen and starting folder for each application. For example, 'Grass' for TeX, 'Pro' for MySQL, and so on.
I had attempted it by copying the 'termina.appl', assigning a copy to each application, and naming them distinctively.
I'm very sorry that each copy of 'terminal.app' remembers always the last setting. They are all same appearance.
Is that possible in Mac?

Don't make copies of the Terminal application. That won't do any good at all.
Set up the windows the way you want them, then select "Save Windows as Group" from the Window menu.

Different Document types under one company code

Hi All,
I am working on a project where i have to implement SAP PS in 3 Company codes.
I have a requirement that Different number ranges should be used in different codes for creating PRs.
In OPTT,order category 20 is used with NB,here i can change 1 Document type.Is it possible in std SAP to create different Order cat for 20 and then we can link diff document types for diff order cat of type 20.
Regards
Muzamil

Hi,
The assignment of the PR document type in Account assignment is only one is possible you cant assign multiple document type here.
The Automatic PR raised from the PS is only one assignment is possible,so you can inform your MM consultant to create the seperate document type say ex ZNB-- PR for the Project which is common for all the three company code & assign this with the PR assignment in account assignmet filed.

Raj

Users not showing in Terminal Server Under Remote desktop services manager and Task Manager

Hi All,
I have a problem here in Terminal Server. I can not see the users logged in to Server but i know users are accessing the files and currently working.
1. From the Task Manager-- Show processes from all users displayed all the processes accessing by users.
2. From the Task Manager-- From Users Tab--No users list at all
3. From the Command Prompt- Query users-- No information
4. From the Remote desktop services Manager-- used with IP/Host name-- Still can not see the users list and processes. So i can not kill the session if needed.
Enviroment:
TS CALS 20 currently accessing 15 users
VM-WARE GUEST: 2008 RS Terminal Services/Remote Desktop services installed
Windows up to date-- Just updated last month
Problem is here for long time. Just couldn't find the time to trouble shoot.
UMESH DEUJA MCP,MCTS,MCSA,CCNA

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
As you have tried many steps, I suggest you to try below command line and power shell command if successful in your case. Please try below command with Admin access:
qwinsta /server:<servername>
To kill a session use rwinsta to delete the session specifying the ID number:
rwinsta /server:computer01 3
Here's the list of command line tools for Remote Desktop Or, you can use PowerShell:
Get-RDUserSession and Disconnect-RDUser
Please check the list of Power Shell command from
this link.
Hope it helps!
Thanks,
Dharmesh
