Execute a command in all tabs in gnome-terminal


Hi All,

Is there any way to execute a command in all tabs of a gnome-terminal window instead of switching to each tab and pasting the command?

Thanks,
Ganesh

AFAIK the tabs are a convenience feature - they represent individual terminals, just not each in their own window.
Therefore I'd say: no way

That is a feature of some terminal programs. As well as listening for activity across multiple tabs. That's where you input a command in one tab and it executes in any that you have listening... and when output is printed in any tab - the tab flashes or changes color.

Konsole for sure - others as well I think

cheers
