<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
<DD>xfce4-terminal is what is known as an X terminal emulator, often referred to as terminal or shell. It provides an equivalent to the old-fashioned text screen on your desktop, but one which can easily share the screen with other graphical applications. Windows users may already be familiar with the MS-DOS Prompt utility, which has the analogous function of offering a DOS command-line under Windows, though one should note that the UNIX CLI offer far more power and ease of use than does DOS.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
xfce4-terminal emulates the
|
|
xterm
|
|
application developed by the X Consortium. In turn, the
|
|
xterm
|
|
application emulates the DEC VT102 terminal and also supports the DEC VT220 escape sequences. An escape sequence is a series of characters that start with the
|
|
Esc
|
|
character. xfce4-terminal accepts all of the escape sequences that the VT102 and VT220 terminals use for functions such as to position the cursor and to clear the screen.
