ROXTerm vs software.jessies.org terminator

ROXTerm supports dragging and dropping items into the Terminal window.

In ROXTerm, users can use D-Bus to configure terminals from other applications, allowing for communication between multiple computer programs.

ROXTerm includes a configuration manager which can easily be run by selecting Configure... in the terminal's menu, or by simply running roxterm-config. You can then easily swap configuration files with other users, manage profiles, and customize things like color schemes or keyboard shortcuts.

ROXTerm uses the latest GTK widget set which is great a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces.

Due to UTF-8, this terminator won't mangle your favorite accented characters, and it copes well with languages where there's a mix of normal and wide glyphs (such as Greek).

Terminator won't throw away output when it scrolls off the top of the screen, nor when it reaches any arbitrary limit.

This is just like tabbed browsing, only with terminals, and means that multiple pages or documents are contained in a single window.

Most terminal emulators wrap text when it intrudes upon the right margin. Terminator doesn't; it instead provides a horizontal scrollbar when necessary.
