Hi @mkoseoglu,

You can install tilda terminal which can run in the background.

sudo apt-get install tilda

I configure it to launch gtop as default command and changed some other style settings (my config_0). You can configure tilda by:

wget -O ~/.config/tilda/config_0 https://gist.githubusercontent.com/aksakalli/29b6de2f3ea6fa9a42f31346e5a4a0c4/raw/config_0

and start it

optionally you can add it to Startup Applications to start it automatically when you log in

wget -O ~/.config/autostart/tilda.desktop https://gist.githubusercontent.com/aksakalli/29b6de2f3ea6fa9a42f31346e5a4a0c4/raw/tilda.desktop
