Topinambour

Topinambour is a simple Terminal written with the Gtk3 and Vte3 ruby bindings from the project Ruby-GNOME2. It just provides one window with one Vte terminal. If you need tab management, windows splitting, session management, uses tmux with it.

gem install topinambour

topinambour
topinambour -e "/usr/bin/glances"

• the Gtk theme can be modified via a Css file (~/.config/topinambour/topinambour.css).

• terminal colors can be changed on the fly and saved.
• terminal font can be changed on the fly and saved.
• in the terminal, some patterns can be clicked (urls, emails, color names ...) in order to launch the appropriate application or a related dialog window.

By default, topinambour will look for the file ~/.config/topinambour/topinambour.css. You can select another file in the preferences dialog. This dialog can be shown via the application menu. Various widget can be themed via the Css like the headerbar for example. Here is the Css used in the first screenshot (the Gtk theme is the Arc theme).
