What IsTerminator?
Split HorizontallyandSplit Verticallyare two options available to us to divide our Terminal window into 2, or more windows!
Next, selectSplit Vertically.
You will now have three windows.
Next clickSplit Verticallyagain, and you will now have four windows!
Go ahead and poke the Preferences button.
If so, let us set them up in the same way on your workstation.
Tick ‘Scroll on keystroke’ and ‘Infinite Scrollback’.
The second option allows you to press a key to scroll.
The final option enables infinite scrollback.
I would highly recommend this, unless you have an older or slower machine you are working on.
It is great to be able to scroll back up all the way to the start of your session!
Now let’s save our configuration as default.
This requires a little workaround.
There will now be two ‘default’ layouts in the list.
You will receive a message like this:
Simply press ‘Close Terminals’, and restart Terminator.
You should now have paperthin terminal divider lines and infinite scrollback!
bang out something and note how it is being replicated to all windows at the same time!
The group name is any arbitrary name you’ve got the option to think off.
Terminator Crashing?
You will however loose your configuration parameters, though often these are quickly re-setup.
and don’t forget to store your new configuration as ‘default’ as described earlier!
Enjoy Terminator!
Terminator takes less then 30 minutes to setup, and often only about five to ten.
