What would it take to create a terminal for this?

[mjarkk]

I'm very much liking this script so far and i'm kinda thinking to do real work using this tool.
Though i'm kinda already getting tired of running ctrl + alt + t > shell > brioche ubuntu shell to get into a shell.
So i was thinking it would be nice if there was a second terminal app just like the already existing terminal for linux.

It looks like you're not very much interested in looking into this if i understand the support section in the readme.
So i wanted to inspect this myself but i i'm still very new to Chrome OS and i think i need some pointing in the right direction to get started.
Sooo i wanted to ask if you know any of these:

• Is this even possible to create a second terminal application (is it even a app i can have multiple of)?
• Is there source code of the current linux terminal?
• Where can i find the terminal binary, icon, etc in the chrome os linux?

I actually looked into this but the Crostini (terminal app + how it deals with icons notably) is a very complex setup not easily reproducible from brioche.

Most of the tools needed for crostini (notably garcon: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform2/+/master/vm_tools/garcon/) are built into the "termina" vm and are therefore not accessible from brioche.

To have a better understanding of how it works, you might want to read this https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/docs/+/8c8ac04aed5d45bb6a14605c422dbbd01eeadf15/containers_and_vms.md and have a look at the termina vm content

That's a bummer it's such a complex setup.

But it's probably not impossible :),
I'll read up on what you send and see if i can learn some new things and maybe also start creating some new things.

Thanks!
