Dropdown-Terminal-Emulator triggered my SUPER or Windows-Key

Hi there,
I'm using the fallback-mode in Gnome 3 because I don't like the shell. Therefore I don't need the SUPER-key (right?).
So I was wondering if there was such an app like Guake or Tilda that could be triggered by hitting that button. I tried Guake and Tilda but they only let you assign SUPER + some key, not just SUPER alone.
Thanks

try xbindkeys

[SOLVED] Terminal emulator that allows free resizing?

EDIT: Answered my own question; terminator allows per-pixel resizing if you disable window hinting in the preferences.
I have an annoyance with resizing terminal emulators. I use stacking WMs (xfwm4 on one setup, compiz standalone on another) but I usually like to tile my windows manually. I've enabled edge snapping in both of these WMs. However, whenever I'm resizing a terminal window, the snapping doesn't work because the terminal window can't be freely resized - I can only change the size of the window by one character's height/width. For example, if a terminal is open at 80x36, and I want to make it just a little bit wider to snap against the edge of another window, I can't because it won't let me resize the window between 80 and 81 characters.
I've tried xfce's terminal, gnome-terminal, lxterminal, xterm, urxvt, and st. Can someone direct me to a terminal emulator that will let me resize windows to whatever size I want, regardless of whether it is a discrete character size, or am I out of luck?
P.S. I've noticed that if I resize a window with wmctrl and issue the resize command twice, then xfce's terminal behaves the way it should. Can I replicate this behavior for resizing with the mouse?

A terminal emulator and X Window GUI are different things. You can have a terminal emulator in a graphical desktop environment, but you cannot display GUI in a terminal.
Putty is just a SSH client and terminal emulator (VT) and can be used with X-forwarding to display remote GUI applications (Linux), provided you are have a X Window server installed and running on your local computer, e.g. Xming Server for Windows.
Perhaps you will find the free version of http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ useful. It is a single application based on Cygwin that allows you run GUI applications from your remote Linux system.
By far the best terminal emulator in terms of user interface and configuration options that I’m aware of is the Terminal App of MacOSX, which also automatically opens Xorg if you open a GUI application. And it provides the full set of terminal escape sequences. But if you are on Windows….
Alternatively, use VNC. You can run VNC in several modes, either to open an existing remote desktop connection, start a new desktop connection, or run a minimal X windows server, such as TWM that does not require you to install or run a graphical user desktop on your remote Linux server. If you are interested in VNC, perhaps check the following: https://community.oracle.com/thread/2456580. You can also tunnel VNC through SSH if your network firewall prevents communication.

Is there a terminal emulator with up- down output?

The idea just hit me but it's very hard to find something in search or on google (up and down are popular keywords...).
Here's my idea: the terminal I use (urxvt) and every other I heard of always outputs text sort of 'upwards'. Meaning: the prompt line is mostly on the bottom (and if you use a tiling wm like me it's mostly on the bottom of the screen), well except for new terminal windows of course.
I thought it would be cool if it could be on the top of the screen and the lines would be output towards the bottom of the window. Get it? If you would take a normal terminal window and reverse the lines order, this would be exactly what I need.
Quick example:
A normal terminal
[user@desktop]: ls -l
drwxr-xr-x 5 user user 4096 Jan 17 12:53 dir1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user user 30 Dec 23 17:14 a-link
drwxr-xr-x 2 user user 4096 Feb 10 13:26 dir2
[user@desktop]: _
What I would like
[user@desktop]: _
drwxr-xr-x 5 user user 4096 Jan 17 12:53 dir1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user user 30 Dec 23 17:14 a-link
drwxr-xr-x 2 user user 4096 Feb 10 13:26 dir2
[user@desktop]: ls -l
Get it? Top -> down! So the prompt always gravitates toward the top of the window (provided enough output of course)
So anyway, back to the question: is there a terminal emulator that can do it?

But no, as far as I know there's no such things.
Any if you think it a little further, it's a trouble some idea. You may not notice with a simple "ls" command but with something more complex trouble will pop up every where.
How about you try and think how exactly will you implemented this idea.
Could be fun (Tried it).
Heh yea, i just did the same and came to the same conclusions.

Xmonad - Can't start any terminal emulator (xterm,urxvt,etc)

Hi,
I've recently installed Arch Linux in Virtualbox-OSE and also installed xmonad. It took me a while to get it running. It is all working fine and I can start all kinds of applications with MOD+Shift+P, but the only thing I can't do is start a terminal emulator such as xterm or urxvt. Neither with MOD+Shift+P and MOD+Shift+Return. When I do this I see a window flashing and I think it is the program I am trying to start but it is closing right after the startup.
Does anybody recognize this problem or know how to fix it?
Thanks,
Webfp

Using SecureCRT or other terminal emulator application for Telnet of LMS

Hi Everyone,
How to I set SecureCRT/Hyperterm or other terminal emulator as the one that will be use to telnet a device from Device Center or Topology Services?
Many thanks.

For Device Center, it depends on which browser you use. If it's Mozilla/Firefox, it can be as simple as modifying the Helper application in the Preferences. Or if it's IE 7 or 8, you could modify the registry setting for the telnet:// protocol (see this post https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/670709), or alternatively replace the Windows telnet.exe binary with a shortcut to SecureCRT if you don't mind using the latter all the time.
For Topo Service in Campus Manager, you need to create a campusmgr.properties file as described in http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_campus_manager/5.0/user/guide/cmugfull.pdf, and keep in mind of http://tools.cisco.com/Support/BugToolKit/search/getBugDetails.do?method=fetchBugDetails&bugId=CSCsa80409 that afflicts CM 4.0 and Windows 2003 and Windows XP clients.

Multimedia key issue in a terminal emulator

My keyboard has a few multimedia keys(XF86AudioRaiseVolume, etc.) and
they have been correctly recognized by X and have keycodes/keysyms. I
can get them work on most programs, but they are not recognized by
programs run inside a terminal emulator(urxvt or xterm, for example).
Specifically, I want to control my emms playlist via
XF86AudioPrev/XF86AudioNext. I have the key bindings in emacs start up
file and it actually works when emacs appears as a standalone X
window. But it fails when emacs is inside a terminal. it appears to
me that the terminal/shell never delivers these key strokes to any
processes spawned by them.
I searched for the keysym/keymap resources in urxvt/xterm but can't
quite catch the idea and don't even know if this helps.

Response marked with
line 1 16
modem InOut
it says that, "line 2 does not support modem control"
- can you please try only one line at a time, that is:
line 1
modem inout
then try line 2 and so on and see if we see errors for specific lines only (which we can investigate further)
Then I typed:
(config)#line 0 17
(config-line)#modem InOut
it says, "line 0 does not support modem control. Now it doesn't talk about line 2, instead it says that line 0 does not support modem control.
This error is ok since line 0 is console and does not support modem control, mind you IOS spills out errors one after another so probably would have given error for line 2 next.
In here, the main problem is that, when I type:
(config)#line 1 16
(config-line)#no exec
and when I telnet, the router doesn't even prompt for anything. But when I again say, "exec" in line mode, then the router prompts me for the username.
Do you mean reverse telnet out of these lines? Not sure I understand what you are trying to do here.
A few things to check:
1. Is the router completely up, means its not in boot mode etc.
2. Are the IOS images different or same on the working vs non working 2511?
Thanks, Mak

[SOLVED] Tmux in terminal emulator having strange effect on X session

Hello. I've searched about and googled for this problem for a while, but to no avail. The problem is this:
When in an X session, in the Awesome WM, when I fire up a terminal emulator (so far I tried lxterminal, xterm, urxvt and lilyterm), the console (from before the X session) appears with the X startup messages and it's stuck that way. I'm still in the WM however and the mouse shows. I just can't see anything past that console screen. I can't see any error messages thereon either.
When not in Awesome (and X), tmux starts up fine, and also when in Awesome and I run
sudo tmux
in the terminal emulators.
I first encountered this some time ago, using just lilyterm, but then I tried running tmux in lxterminal instead and it worked fine. Now this always happens, no matter the terminal. Right before this incident, I was doing some experiments with running a detached tmux session on login. I tried executing in .bash_profile, .bashrc, .xinitrc and .config/awesome/rc.lua. Since this started happening at some point, I'm not sure when, I tried some different files. Now I have removed what I put in them but this behavior keeps occurring. I've tried to make sure the $TERM variable is set right inside and outside tmux for some of them and
set -g default-terminal "screen/screen-color256"
in the .tmux.conf.
I sync my config files between my laptop and desktop so they have the same behavior, except on the desktop the console screen flashes momentarily and then all GUI programs have disappeared from the screen, leaving just bare Awesome. I can then start some more GUI programs again. If I try to start tmux again in another terminal emulator. I get the "nested tmux sessions" message.
I don't know if it matters, but using screen instead works as intended. Anyway, any help is appreciated. My tmux.conf is really just
set -g default-terminal "screen"
at the moment.
Last edited by m73 (2013-07-22 12:06:03)

Tried the same in Openbox instead of Awesome and I get the same behavior. I also made a tmux session before starting X and attached it in the terminal emulator afterwards. That worked, but when I try to make a new window in that session with Ctrl-b C, the same thing happens. So this happens if I try to make new sessions or windows as the current user in an X session. Listing and killing sessions works as intended.

[Solved] Most Lightweight Terminal Emulator?

I'm currently using simple terminal from suckless.org. It is the most lightweight terminal emulator I could find. I use it with a combination of evilwm, the most lightweight window manager (besides tinywm). Does anyone know of a terminal emulator that is more lightweight terminal emulator then simple terminal?

Carbon - yet another terminal emulator

What is carbon?
Carbon is yet another terminal emulator aiming at minimalism, speed, functionality, and aesthetics. As an added bonus, the code is very modular.
Carbon is built on xcb instead of Xlib. There has yet, to my knowledge, a terminal emulator built like this. This should prove to provide a faster and more responsive terminal.
Features
* Support for managing different colour themes.
* Ability to install custom escape sequence handlers.
* Daemon mode much like urxvt, possibly with some degree of detaching/reattaching support.
While I haven't figured out how I'm going to handle configuration, I will utilize custom escape sequences to control certain settings. For example, unless I find it unsatisfactory, carbon will provide a shell script for theme changing/previewing, relying on escape sequences to tell the terminal what color theme to use.
The code it somewhat suckless inspired, it will utilize a config.h file by the time its done. However, I have a somewhat bigger aim on making carbon modular than most suckless projects. The terminal emulator back-end should be easily reusable other projects.
Current status:
* I can create a tty and read and write from it.
* I can parse CSI escape sequences (but I ignore them for now)
* I can read keypresses from a windows and send the appropriate character to to the tty (at time of posting, this is not committed to repo).
Not really worth running as it doesn't draw to the screen yet, but its getting there.
Thanks to:
* st, madtty: This project was largely written looking at how they did things; my code ranges from very similar to blatant rip-off.
* Awesome: I gutted their keycode->keysym->string code to get input working. Kudos for adopting xcb.
Heres a link to the project on github: github.com/simongmzlj/carbon
Thanks for your time. Any comments, ideas, or criticisms would be appreciated.

Sorry, I really wasn't very clear, and I'm not positive how to say it. I'm perfectly happy with being able to scroll through history. That's a useful feature. But consider this situation: You're checking out the git man files. This gives you a page far longer than your terminal is, and you work your way down to the command you wanted to check out. Then, when you quit, I prefer if the info stays on your screen instead of removing the git man page and going back to what you had before calling man. Hopefully that makes sense. If not, think the default behaviour of screen (prefered) vs. xterm.

SCO-ANSI Terminal Emulator

Does any one know of a Terminal Emulator that will run in Arch and emulate an SCO-ANSI terminal.
Our office wants to migrate to 100% Linux from Windows but we are having trouble finding an emulator that works for our needs. Unfortunately our server is an old SCO unit and the new full graphic interface won't be ready for a year or more so we can't upgrade the system until then. We currently use AniTa on the Windows machines but they don't make a Linux version.
Any ideas?

I don't suppose you've found an alternative to AniTa? I don't mean to ressurect a dead thread but there might be some very valuable information here...

Free Linux Terminal emulator

As you know, some oracle DB components need be installed under GUI interface.
Please advise which is a free best linux client Terminal emulator that can be easy configured a linux GUI interface for DBA?
I do not think putty is a good linux GUI interface tool.
Thanks

A terminal emulator and X Window GUI are different things. You can have a terminal emulator in a graphical desktop environment, but you cannot display GUI in a terminal.
Putty is just a SSH client and terminal emulator (VT) and can be used with X-forwarding to display remote GUI applications (Linux), provided you are have a X Window server installed and running on your local computer, e.g. Xming Server for Windows.
Perhaps you will find the free version of http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ useful. It is a single application based on Cygwin that allows you run GUI applications from your remote Linux system.
By far the best terminal emulator in terms of user interface and configuration options that I’m aware of is the Terminal App of MacOSX, which also automatically opens Xorg if you open a GUI application. And it provides the full set of terminal escape sequences. But if you are on Windows….
Alternatively, use VNC. You can run VNC in several modes, either to open an existing remote desktop connection, start a new desktop connection, or run a minimal X windows server, such as TWM that does not require you to install or run a graphical user desktop on your remote Linux server. If you are interested in VNC, perhaps check the following: https://community.oracle.com/thread/2456580. You can also tunnel VNC through SSH if your network firewall prevents communication.

3270 Terminal Emulation

I am rearchitecting a group of about 20 screen-scraping automated processes with a J2EE-based framework. We are currently using an Attachmate Java product for the terminal emulation API. However, we have discovered that this particular product was designed for single-user deployment, and does not work reliably in our JBoss/Linux server environment.
Therefore we are looking for a J2EE-compliant API that will replace the current Attachmate product. We also need it to work on our Windows 2000-based developer workstations. Does anyone know of a product that will meet these requirements?
Here is a list of the basic terminal emulation API we are using currently:
     connect()
     disconnect()
     isConnected()
     waitHostQuiet()
     sendKeys()
     setCursor()
     getCursorRow()
     getCursorColumn()
     getString()
     putString()
     waitForString()
Thanks!

Thanks for the tip. I'm taking a look at Hummingbird as well as some other products.
There are several products (Hummingbird being one of them) that provide their own proprietary scripting language with their emulator, but I don't want to go that route since we have some very complex screens and a significant investment in Java code that processes these screens. I doubt that a scripting language would have the horsepower to handle the complex screens. Plus I want to throw away as little as possible when switching to other emulator products.
I have seen several servlet-based web-to-host products out there, but what I need is a Java API that I can use to do screen-scraping directly against the terminal session. Or I could possibly go against the servlet in one of these products, but that seems like a very circuitous route to a solution.

Terminal Emulation/TN5250 on a Blackberry

All -
I am looking for some software to do terminal emulation on the Blackberry. I used to use MobileSSH from Rove, but now that they have incorporated it into Mobile Admin, I can no longer purchase just MobileSSH and the cost has also rised about 3x-4x to $595 and I can't get justification for that amount of money.
I am wanting to connect to an AS/400 through MDS via TN5250 emulation. I will need function key access, special character input ability, and field exit key capability. Any suggestions anyone? Please let me know!!
Thanks,
Charlie
