Terminal Emulators Reviewed

Posted by Hemos on from the learning-the-lines dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Linux Weekly News has a now free review of terminal emulators. It might be old but still remains an important tool to many of the regulars here." If you're checking that out, it's also worth checking out Joe Barr's CLI series on Linux.com (also owned by OSDN)

    I can't count the number of times a Terminal Emulator has either saved me from boredom, or prevented me from booting into Windows. Nothing like playing Crusader or Warcraft II in Linux.

      Not quite, I have to use a Terminal Emulator to emulate old hardware (VESA drivers mainly).

      Slashdot used to be a lot better. Five or six years ago you had your annoying trolls but also some bright sparks of insight.

      These days slashdot is worse than a pack of mediocre newbies.

      Hell, back then even newbies were smarter than the current newbies. It's like slashdot has become an eternal amateur hour with ignorant fools getting moderated to +5 insightful by honest-to-God-reaaaallly-stupid-moderators.

      I give up.
