Development Roadmap #30

Open sedwards2009 opened 7 years ago

sedwards2009 commented 7 years ago

This issue is for tracking issue priorities and their rough order of implementation.

Note: This can change at anytime without warning. It might even just be out of date at times

Unsorted:

cprog commented 6 years ago

Hi, Could you add quake mode support ?

sedwards2009 commented 6 years ago

@cprog I've put your request in issue #93.

cprog commented 6 years ago

@sedwards2009 Thank you.

lou-bi commented 5 years ago

Hi, hope it's the place. Do you plan to integrate a programmatic way of openning multiple Extraterm with own process running in? Good job for the almost fullfilled roadmap !

sedwards2009 commented 5 years ago

@BonLouis can you make a new issue here and describe in more detail what you mean? I don't quite understand what you are requesting.

sedwards2009 commented 5 years ago

@BonLouis Also, the roadmap isn't approaching fulfillment. I just need to update it and fill in my stuff to do. :smile:

joedf commented 4 years ago

add Quake mode and fullscreen to that list. 😎

sedwards2009 commented 4 years ago

@joedf it is possible to set a global shortcut to open up Extraterm. So you can get fairly close to a quake mode.

No plans for full screen beyond just plain old maximising the window.

Hi @sedwards2009, I have been using Terminator for Linux for years. What I love there is that you can split the view to see more consoles in a single Tab (similar to what you do in Extraterm), but you can also group all the terminals within the Tab to type and execute the same commands on all grouped command lines at once. This is super handy when working with multiple nodes of the same cluster. (usually system upgrades, etc)

I cannot find a single terminal emulator for Windows that would offer me this option. Please consider adding to the roadmap. Extraterm is a very nice piece of work.

Additional info: Windows offer a Linux Subsystem where Linux apps can be run. WSL2 ... I intended to use Terminal there, but the problem is that it does not work together with corporate VPN. (I found many complains on web about it.) WSL1 ... This one works fine with corporate VPNs, but does not run GUI based apps (like Terminator)

This is the reason why I am looking for a new Windows-based Terminator alternative.

Update: On the roadmap of Microsoft Windows Terminal for 3 years https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/2634

Technically (probably) not really the right place to say this, but Tabby can do that if you can deal with an Electron based terminal emulator.

sedwards2009 commented 1 year ago

@Belgabor How does Tabby deal with it? How are the tabs selected which should receive the input? Is it just all of the tabs/panes in a window?

Splits and "input broadcast" are not the same thing. One way to do "input broadcast" would be first a way to "link" any number of terminals (regardless of which window they are in) and then have input to a linked terminal automatically be sent to the others.

It's not a feature I have use for, so I'm not really familiar with it's intricacies. As far as I can see from a quick test you can focus either everything (aka all panes on all tabs) or just all the panes on one tab,
