TERMINATOR(1) TERMINATOR(1) NAME Terminator - Multiple GNOME terminals in one window SYNOPSIS terminator [options] DESCRIPTION This manual page documents Terminator, a terminal emulator application. Terminator is a program that allows users to set up flexible arrange- ments of GNOME terminals. It is aimed at those who normally arrange lots of terminals near each other, but don't want to use a frame based window manager. OPTIONS This program follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long op- tions starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. -h, --help Show summary of options -v, --version Show the version of the Terminator installation -m, --maximise Start with a maximised window -M, --maximize Start with a maxi- mized window -f, --fullscreen Start with a fullscreen window -b, --borderless Instruct the window manager not to render borders/decoration on the Terminator window (this works well with -m) -H, --hidden Hide the Terminator window by default. Its visibility can be toggled with the hide_window keyboard shortcut (Ctrl-Shift-Alt-a by default) -T, --title Force the Terminator window to use a specific name rather than updating it dynamically based on the wishes of the child shell. --geometry=GEOMETRY Specifies the preferred size and position of Terminator's win- dow; see X(7). -e, --command=COMMAND Runs the specified command instead of your default shell or pro- file specified command. Note: if Terminator is launched as x- terminal-emulator -e behaves like -x, and the longform becomes --execute2=COMMAND -x, --execute COMMAND [ARGS] Runs the rest of the command line instead of your default shell or profile specified command. --working-directory=DIR Set the terminal's working directory -g, --config FILE Use the specified FILE for configuration -r, --role=ROLE Set a custom WM_WINDOW_ROLE property on the window -l, --layout=LAYOUT Start Terminator with a specific layout. The argument here is the name of a saved layout. -s, --select-layout=LAYOUT Open the layout launcher window instead of the normal terminal. -p, --profile=PROFILE Use a different profile as the default -i, --icon=FORCEDICON Set a custom icon for the window (by file or name) -u, --no-dbus Disable DBus -d, --debug Enable debugging output (please use this when reporting bugs). This can be specified twice to enable a built-in python debug- ging server. --debug-classes=DEBUG_CLASSES If this is specified as a comma separated list, debugging output will only be printed from the specified classes. --debug-methods=DEBUG_METHODS If this is specified as a comma separated list, debugging output will only be printed from the specified functions. If this is specified in addition to --debug-classes, only the intersection of the two lists will be displayed --new-tab If this is specified and Terminator is already running, DBus will be used to spawn a new tab in the first Terminator window. KEYBINDINGS The following default keybindings can be used to control Terminator: F1 Launches the full HTML manual. Creation & Destruction The following items relate to creating and destroying terminals. Ctrl+Shift+O Split terminals Horizontally. Ctrl+Shift+E Split terminals Vertically. Ctrl+Shift+T Open new tab. Ctrl+Shift+I Open a new window. (Note: Unlike in previous releases, this win- dow is part of the same Terminator process.) Super+I Spawn a new Terminator process. Alt+L Open layout launcher. Ctrl+Shift+W Close the current terminal. Ctrl+Shift+Q Close the current window. Navigation The following items relate to moving between and around terminals. Alt+Up Move to the terminal above the current one. Alt+Down Move to the terminal below the current one. Alt+Left Move to the terminal left of the current one. Alt+Right Move to the terminal right of the current one. Ctrl+PageDown Move to next Tab. Ctrl+PageUp Move to previous Tab. Ctrl+Shift+N or Ctrl+Tab Move to next terminal within the same tab, use Ctrl+PageDown to move to the next tab. If cycle_term_tab is False, cycle within the same tab will be disabled. Ctrl+Shift+P or Ctrl+Shift+Tab Move to previous terminal within the same tab, use Ctrl+PageUp to move to the previous tab. If cycle_term_tab is False, cycle within the same tab will be disabled. Organisation The following items relate to arranging and resizing terminals. Ctrl+Shift+Right Move parent dragbar Right. Ctrl+Shift+Left Move parent dragbar Left. Ctrl+Shift+Up Move parent dragbar Up. Ctrl+Shift+Down Move parent dragbar Down. Super+R Rotate terminals clockwise. Super+Shift+R Rotate terminals counter-clockwise. Drag and Drop The layout can be modified by moving terminals with Drag and Drop. To start dragging a terminal, click and hold on its ti- tlebar. Alternatively, hold down Ctrl, click and hold the right mouse button. Then, **Release Ctrl**. You can now drag the ter- minal to the point in the layout you would like it to be. The zone where the terminal would be inserted will be highlighted. Ctrl+Shift+PageDown Swap tab position with next Tab. Ctrl+Shift+PageUp Swap tab position with previous Tab. Miscellaneous The following items relate to miscellaneous terminal related functions. Ctrl+Shift+C Copy selected text to clipboard. Ctrl+Shift+V Paste clipboard text. Ctrl+Shift+S Hide/Show Scrollbar. Ctrl+Shift+F Search within terminal scrollback. Ctrl+Shift+R Reset terminal state. Ctrl+Shift+G Reset terminal state and clear window. Ctrl+Plus (+) Increase font size. Note: This may require you to press shift, depending on your keyboard. Ctrl+Minus (-) Decrease font size. Note: This may require you to press shift, depending on your keyboard. Ctrl+Zero (0) Restore font size to original setting. Ctrl+Alt+W Rename window title. Ctrl+Alt+A Rename tab title. Ctrl+Alt+X Rename terminal title. Super+1 Insert terminal number, i.e. 1 to 12. Super+0 Insert padded terminal number, i.e. 01 to 12. Grouping & Broadcasting The following items relate to helping to focus on a specific terminal. F11 Toggle window to fullscreen. Ctrl+Shift+X Toggle between showing all terminals and only showing the cur- rent one (maximise). Ctrl+Shift+Z Toggle between showing all terminals and only showing a scaled version of the current one (zoom). Ctrl+Shift+Alt+A Hide the initial window. Note that this is a global binding, and can only be bound once. The following items relate to grouping and broadcasting. Super+T Group all terminals in the current tab so input sent to one of them, goes to all terminals in the current tab. Super+Shift+T Remove grouping from all terminals in the current tab. Super+G Group all terminals so that any input sent to one of them, goes to all of them. Super+Shift+G Remove grouping from all terminals. Alt+A Broadcast to All terminals. Alt+G Broadcast to Grouped terminals. Alt+O Broadcast Off. Most of these keybindings are changeable in the Preferences.
