TERMINAL(1)

NAME
Terminal - En terminalemulator för X

SYNOPSIS

Terminal [FLAGGA...]

BESKRIVNING

Terminal is what is known as an X terminal emulator, often referred to as terminal or shell. It provides an equivalent to the old-fashioned text screen on your desktop, but one which can easily share the screen with other graphical applications. Windows users may already be familiar with the MS-DOS Prompt utility, which has the analogous function of offering a DOS command-line under Windows, though one should note that the UNIX CLI offer far more power and ease of use than does DOS.

Terminal emulates the xterm application developed by the X Consortium. In turn, the xterm application emulates the DEC VT102 terminal and also supports the DEC VT220 escape sequences. An escape sequence is a series of characters that start with the Esc character. Terminal accepts all of the escape sequences that the VT102 and VT220 terminals use for functions such as to position the cursor and to clear the screen.

MILJö

Terminal uses the Basedir Specification as defined on Freedesktop.org[1] to locate its data and configuration files. This means that file locations will be specified as a path relative to the directories described in the specification.

${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}
    The first base directory to look for configuration files. By default this is set to ~/.config/.

${XDG_CONFIG_DIRS}
    A colon separated list of base directories that contain configuration data. By default the application will look in ${sysconfdir}/xdg/. The value of ${sysconfdir} depends on how the program was build and will often be /etc/ for binary packages.

${XDG_DATA_HOME}
    The root for all user-specific data files. By default this is set to ~/.local/share/.

${XDG_DATA_DIRS}
    A set of preference ordered base directories relative to which data files should be searched in addition to the ${XDG_DATA_HOME} base directory. The directories should be separated with a colon.

FILER

${XDG_CONFIG_DIRS}/Terminal/terminalrc
    This is the location of the configuration file that includes the preferences which control the look and feel of Terminal.

${XDG_DATA_DIRS}/Terminal/Terminal-toolbars.ui
    This file includes the user interface definition for the toolbars. If you customize the toolbars using the graphical toolbars editor, Terminal will store the new toolbars layout in the file ${XDG_DATA_HOME}/Terminal/Terminal-toolbars.ui.
