Home: http://code.google.com/p/stjerm-terminal-emulator/ Version: 0.13
As stjerm needs a starter-script, i've renamed the bin to stjerm-bin and called the script stjerm. To alter the look and feel, you'll have to edit
Sterm is started (and stopped) from menu => utility. it runs in the background and will be 'dropped' down by pressing 'F11'. this could also be altered in /usr/bin/stjerm. Needs vte from here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=363109#363109 Compiled and tested in 4.31. aragon

One thing i forgot: It does not have to be that 'ugly'. You could also have background-images, fake-transparency... doc is at /usr/share/doc . remember you'll have to change the settings in /usr/bin/stjerm. aragon _________________ PUPPY SEARCH: http://wellminded.com/puppy/pupsearch.html |

I like it. Not clear on how to start other tabs and a few things (but then I'm pretty much a lightweight with cli or even keycommands for that matter), like trying 'stjerm -help' made it terminate itself (but it did start arora and I can edit the html help a bit to suit, Composer is good at that). But for most everything else it's real handy and looks good. Not really sure that it does a true translucency (Jwm-beta with kcompmgr will show a serial focus-trans with overlaid windows) from the little I tried it there, but it's quite good at automatically getting out of the way if focus isn't held. Nope, not ugly at all - easy to preset the options for as many different looks/ways as you like (but only one may be on-deck at a time, I believe .. one of the reasons it'd be an advantage to have tabs like mrxvt). I'll figure it out soon enough, probably. |

`f00,
the 'ugly'-post was because of my grey-preset. translucency/transparency: the doc says, that is uses real transparency if a compmgr is found, else uses fake-transparency. yes '--help' and "--info" terminates the app, seems to be a bug. another one is, that if you toggle to fullscreen (right-click option) you can't toggle back to the previous size, it allways stays in fullscreen until you restart. aragon _________________ PUPPY SEARCH: http://wellminded.com/puppy/pupsearch.html |

multiple pids is normal for some apps (try tree view in htop to see the relationship) - nothing to 'fix', really .. that's just how it works. ipager's another one that does basically the same thing. Wine apps generally have a slew of 'support' when loaded .. and so on. Other than being a bit 'heavy' for a terminal emulator, stjerm's a nice handy alternative (yup, it does do tabs
