  • st

    build of the suckless simple terminal with patches for alpha, font2, copyurl, openclipboard, invert, appsync, xresources, scrollback, w3m, keyboard select, boxdraw (by mrdotx)

  • ST is a favorite of some fervent minimalists. I do not think you would like it.

  • alacritty

    A cross-platform, OpenGL terminal emulator.

  • Alacritty is no-nonsense, solid, performant, easily configurable with great defaults and great compatibility. I believe Alacritty is the best most people can use and has no drawbacks, at least as far as I have seen.

  • tilix

    A tiling terminal emulator for Linux using GTK+ 3

  • I use GNOME and Tilix because the only windows I really want to tile are my terminal windows which Tilix does well.

  • ps1Helpers

    A small set of executables that should probably be bash scripts. Used to generate my PS1. Use at your own risk, I only guarantee it works on my own system.

  • dotfiles

    dotfiles - various system and application configuration files (by walderf)

  • hehe. anyways, i'm shy. here's my butth dotfiles.-- ~/.zshrc.local and Alacritty.
