Originally posted by **wurli** August 8, 2024 This would be really nice for cases when the traditional split screen doesn't offer enough real-estate, e.g. for viewing large tibbles etc. Personally I like to have my terminal open on another monitor entirely - VSCode/Positron already support this as shown, but unfortunately not yet with the console! image Loving Positron so far, thanks for all the work to create such an awesome free product!
