A keyboard-centric VTE-based terminal, aimed at use within a window manager
|
|
with tiling and/or tabbing support.
|
|
|
|
Termite looks for the configuration file in the following order:
|
|
``$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/termite/config``, ``~/.config/termite/config``,
|
|
``$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/termite/config``, ``/etc/xdg/termite/config``.
|
|
|
|
Termite's exit status is 1 on a failure, including a termination of the child
|
|
process from an uncaught signal. Otherwise the exit status is that of the child
|
|
process.
|
|
|
|
DEPENDENCIES
|
|
============

|
A vte version >= ``0.38.0``. A `patch
|
|
<https://github.com/thestinger/termite/blob/master/expose_select_text.patch>`_
|
|
is required to expose the functions needed for keyboard selection.

During scrollback search, the current selection is changed to the search match
|
|
and copied to the PRIMARY clipboard buffer.
|
|
|
|
With the text input widget focused, up/down (or tab/shift-tab) cycle through
|
|
completions, escape closes the widget and enter accepts the input.
|
|
|
|
In hints mode, the input will be accepted as soon as termite considers it a
|
|
unique match.
|
|
|
|
PADDING
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Internal padding can be added by using CSS to style the VTE widget. Adding the
|
|
follow snippet to ``$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gtk-3.0/gtk.css`` (or
|
|
``~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css``) will add uniform 2px padding around the edges:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: css
|
|
|
|
VteTerminal {
|
|
padding: 2px;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
This can also be used to add varying amounts of padding to each side via
|
|
standard usage of the CSS padding property.
