Hey gang, to get the conversation rolling towards technical solutions, I’d like to bring up the use of tabs as done by the TCF Terminal.
After a lot of though about it, I think I’m warming up to the idea. It does solve one problem well, but leads to others that I hope we can solve.
The real issue is when you open the Terminals View, there isn’t a connection defined yet. The users needs to be guided towards opening a connection. The lack of tabs is much more obvious than in the TM terminal which more subtly says No Connection in pretty
small text.
Also if we’re going to put multiple terminals into a view, then the tabs are a better way of doing that. But I do wish these tabs had the same behaviour as View tabs. I’d like to be able to re-order them, and to easily pop them out of the View and into
a new View either in the same page or into their own window. If you have multiple monitors, it might be nice to be able to pop terminals into their own shell.
Love to hear other’s opinions on the two views what the like or don’t like about each.
Thanks!
Doug.
