View Poll Results: X Terminal Emulator of the Year
I've actually come to like Chrome's Secure Shell app, pointed at local host. Sometimes the performance sucks (basically anything with a vertical split) but it's pretty good.
Otherwise, I've just stuck to xterm for the last few years. Got tired of all the others. (I used to collect terminal emulators.)
I wish I could vote for two. I use Yakuake when I just want quick access to the terminal, and I use Terminator when I really want to get something done. I like Yakuake normally if I am going to run something in the background. I might have to try some of these however, never heard of some of these
/me is closely following the development and giving feedback to the author
I big plus of xterm, is that it ports to HP-UX and AIX without problems unlike some other emulators that would be perfect if they didn't have that many (linux) dependencies
