| kaushal | hi | 06:30 |
|---|---|---|
| kaushal | I am using gnome terminal on 10.10 | 06:30 |
| kaushal | Can someone here recommend some good terminal software ? | 06:31 |
| kaushal | is terminator a good one ? | 06:31 |
| nisshh | kaushal, you wont need terminator unless you use multiple terminals, which is unlikely | 06:39 |
| kaushal | nisshh: hi | 06:39 |
| kaushal | is there a shortcut key to focus the cursor to the first tab,I mean i do ssh IP1 term1 and then so and so forth so lets say if i need to work on term3, | 06:39 |
| kaushal | so how do i focus it ? | 06:39 |
| nisshh | alt+number works i think | 06:40 |
| nisshh | idk, i dont use tabs | 06:40 |
| kaushal | if there are around 15 tabs ? | 06:40 |
| kaushal | so its difficult to do it | 06:41 |
| nisshh | alt+arrow keys maybe | 06:41 |
| nisshh | what are you using 15 tabs for? | 06:41 |
| nisshh | thats nuts | 06:41 |
| kaushal | basically connect to around 15 hosts | 06:41 |
| nisshh | remote machines? | 06:41 |
| kaushal | yes | 06:42 |
| nisshh | what would you need to ssh to 15 remote machines for all at once? | 06:42 |
| kaushal | i have 15 QA hosts | 06:42 |
| nisshh | Quality Assurance hosts? | 06:42 |
| kaushal | yes | 06:43 |
| nisshh | for your job? | 06:43 |
| kaushal | yes | 06:43 |
| nisshh | ok | 06:43 |
| nisshh | kaushal, run these: sudo apt-get install screen | 06:43 |
| nisshh | then: man screen | 06:43 |
| nisshh | then: firefox google.com and google screen usage :) | 06:44 |
| nisshh | screen will be what you want | 06:44 |
| nisshh | terminal tabs are not designed for that | 06:44 |
| kaushal | ok | 06:44 |
| nisshh | please dont ask me to teach you all the keyboard shortcuts though | 06:45 |
| nisshh | there are heaps | 06:46 |
| nisshh | and man screen and the net will tell you everything | 06:46 |
| kaushal | nisshh: thanks and much appreciated | 06:57 |
| nisshh | np | 07:08 |
