Hi,

in case the user has closed the Shoes.terminal, how to re-open them again?

regards

Apologies @spachner . I commented early on many days ago but it seems to have disappeared. Terminal vs Console ? alt-/ or fan-/ on osx will reopen the Console.

It is not possible, cross-platform, to re-open a Shoes.terminal. We had to do some very ugly things to get stderr and stdout redirected to it. Some people want Shoes to halt when the Terminal is closed and some want it to not be close-able - Windows the is least common denominator and Shoes/Windows can't stop the user from closing of that window or even detect that it happened.
