💖 BLACKBOX-TERMINAL 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the blackbox-terminal manual page, section 1 (User Commands, obvi) — this is the glow-up doc for the BlackBox Terminal Emulator and I'm gonna walk you through it like we're texting at 2am 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

blackbox-terminal — BlackBox Terminal Emulator, aka your new main character terminal 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so basically it's a GTK-4 based terminal, right? and the whole vibe is that it has a reasonably small footprint plus all the usual features you'd expect. lowkey iconic. highkey useful. 💅

here's the feature lineup, no cap:

  • Theming (Tilix-compatible color scheme support) 🎨
  • App theming based on terminal color scheme
  • Transparent background 👻
  • Custom fonts and cell spacing
  • Tabs
  • Toggleable header bar
  • Click to open links 🔗
  • Files drag-n-drop support
  • Sixel (experimental) — note the experimental, bestie, don't come for me
  • Customizable UI
  • Customizable shortcuts ⌨️
🚨 IMPORTANT PSA: this is unrelated to the Blackbox X Window Manager. like, they share a name and that's IT. different whole thing. do not confuse them, I'm begging 🙈

🦋 Usage:

blackbox-terminal [OPTION?] [-- COMMAND ...]

⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

  • -v, --version — Show app version. that's it, that's the whole job 👑
  • -w, --working-directory — Set current working directory. tell it where to start living 📁
  • -c, --command — Execute command in a terminal 🏃
  • -e, --command — Execute command in a terminal. yes babe, this one does the same thing as -c up there — two flags, same energy, both spelled --command 💀
  • -h, --help — Show help. the classic "help me pls" button 🆘

that's the whole page, you ate it, I'm obsessed 🌈

blackbox-terminal 0.14.0-5 — dated December 2024 — mwah, bye bestie, go open a terminal 💜🧚
