.TH "TERMINATOR" "1" "Jan 5, 2008" "" "" .SH "NAME" Terminator \- Multiple GNOME terminals in one window .SH "SYNOPSIS" .B terminator .RI [ options ] .br .SH "DESCRIPTION" This manual page documents \fBTerminator\fP, a terminal emulator application. .PP \fBTerminator\fP is a program that allows users to set up flexible arrangements of GNOME terminals. It is aimed at those who normally arrange lots of terminals near each other, but don't want to use a frame based window manager. .SH "OPTIONS" This program follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`\-'). A summary of options is included below. .TP .B \-h, \-\-help Show summary of options .TP .B \-v, \-\-version Show the version of the Terminator installation .TP .B \-m, \-\-maximise Start with a maximised window .TP .B \-f, \-\-fullscreen Start with a fullscreen window .TP .B \-b, \-\-borderless Instruct the window manager not to render borders/decoration on the Terminator window (this works well with \-m) .TP .B \-H, \-\-hidden Hide the Terminator window by default. Its visibility can be toggled with the \fBhide_window\fR keyboard shortcut (Ctrl-Shift-Alt-a by default) .TP .B \-T, \-\-title Force the Terminator window to use a specific name rather than updating it dynamically based on the wishes of the child shell. .TP .B \-\-geometry=GEOMETRY Specifies the preferred size and position of Terminator's window; see X(7). .TP .B \-e, \-\-command=COMMAND Runs the specified command instead of your default shell or profile specified command .TP .B \-x, \-\-execute COMMAND [ARGS] Runs \fBthe rest of the command line\fR instead of your default shell or profile specified command. .TP .B \-\-working\-directory=DIR Set the terminal's working directory .TP .B \-r, \-\-role=ROLE Set a custom WM_WINDOW_ROLE property on the window .TP .B \-l, \-\-layout=LAYOUT Start Terminator with a specific layout. The argument here is the name of a saved layout. .TP .B \-d, \-\-debug Enable debugging output (please use this when reporting bugs). This can be specified twice to enable a built-in python debugging server. .TP .B \-\-debug\-classes=DEBUG_CLASSES If this is specified as a comma separated list, debugging output will only be printed from the specified classes. .TP .B \-\-debug\-methods=DEBUG_METHODS If this is specified as a comma separated list, debugging outut will only be printed from the specified functions. If this is specified in addition to \-\-debug-classes, only the intersection of the two lists will be displayed .TP .SH "KEYBINDINGS" The following keybindings can be used to control Terminator: .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+O Split terminals H\fBo\fRrizontally. .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+E Split terminals V\fBe\fRrtically. .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+Right Move parent dragbar \fBRight\fR. .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+Left Move parent dragbar \fBLeft\fR. .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+Up Move parent dragbar \fBUp\fR. .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+Down Move parent dragbar \fBDown\fR. .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+S Hide/Show \fBS\fRcrollbar. .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+F Search within terminal scrollback .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+N or Ctrl+Tab Move to \fBn\fRext terminal within the same tab, use Ctrl+PageDown to move to the next tab. If \fBcycle_term_tab\fR is \fBFalse\fR, cycle within the same tab will be disabled .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+P or Ctrl+Shift+Tab Move to \fBp\fRrevious terminal within the same tab, use Ctrl+PageUp to move to the previous tab. If \fBcycle_term_tab\fR is \fBFalse\fR, cycle within the same tab will be disabled .TP .B Alt+Up Move to the terminal \fBabove\fR the current one. .TP .B Alt+Down Move to the terminal \fBbelow\fR the current one. .TP .B Alt+Left Move to the terminal \fBleft of\fR the current one. .TP .B Alt+Right Move to the terminal \fBright of\fR the current one. .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+C Copy selected text to clipboard .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+V Paste clipboard text .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+W Close the current terminal. .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+Q Quits Terminator .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+X Toggle between showing all terminals and only showing the current one (maximise). .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+Z Toggle between showing all terminals and only showing a scaled version of the current one (zoom). .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+T Open new \fBt\fRab .TP .B Ctrl+PageDown Move to next Tab .TP .B Ctrl+PageUp Move to previous Tab .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+PageDown Swap tab position with next Tab .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+PageUp Swap tab position with previous Tab .TP .B Ctrl+Plus (+) Increase font size. \fBNote:\fP this may require you to press shift, depending on your keyboard .TP .B Ctrl+Minus (-) Decrease font size. \fBNote:\fP this may require you to press shift, depending on your keyboard .TP .B Ctrl+Zero (0) Restore font size to original setting. .TP .B F11 Toggle fullscreen .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+R Reset terminal state .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+G Reset terminal state and clear window .TP .B Super+g Group all terminals so that any input sent to one of them, goes to all of them. .TP .B Super+Shift+G Remove grouping from all terminals. .TP .B Super+t Group all terminals in the current tab so input sent to one of them, goes to all terminals in the current tab. .TP .B Super+Shift+T Remove grouping from all terminals in the current tab. .TP .B Ctrl+Shift+I Open a new window (note: unlike in previous releases, this window is part of the same Terminator process) .TP .B Super+i Spawn a new Terminator process .TP .SH "Drag and Drop" The layout can be modified by moving terminals with Drag and Drop. To start dragging a terminal, click and hold on its titlebar. Alternatively, hold down \fBCtrl\fP, click and hold the \fBright\fP mouse button. Then, \fB**Release Ctrl**\fP. You can now drag the terminal to the point in the layout you would like it to be. The zone where the terminal would be inserted will be highlighted. .SH "SEE ALSO" .BR terminator_config(5) .SH "AUTHOR" Terminator was written by Chris Jones and others. .PP This manual page was written by Chris Jones and others.
