From: "Chris Pine" <nemo@...>

List: ruby-talk #58323
Sorry.  I guess I should have been more specific.  I like bash a lot and am
happy with it.  I'm looking for a terminal.

I have run bash in cmd.com and in rxvt, and I like rxvt much better.  I was
just wondering if there was another one people favored more.  Actually, I'm
interested in what linux terminals people use, too.  I have settled on
multi-gnome-terminal, myself, but I'm open for suggestions.

My primary criteria are that programs run "like they are supposed to", and
ease of customability (font, colors, etc.).  In windows, my biggest issues
are with fonts.  There are very few fonts I can use with cmd.com (which is
inferior to rxvt, anyway), and even less with rxvt (at least that I have
figured out).

So, I was wondering what terminals people recommend?  (As was stated earlier
in this thread, rxvt seems to give me problems from time to time.)

I'm a little confused of what you're actually looking for.
It sounds like you're loking for a shell (bash,command.com,cmd.com,
tcsh) ?

rxvt however is a terminal to access a shell.

explain?

Personally, to do any commandline type work, I ssh using PuTTy
(http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/) to a UNIX shell of
choice.
