I have a script to install a package. It has the URL. I want to change
for the next version. Open with vim, edit, save and close, download.
With gvim, no need to close. And if a mistake is committed, correct and
try again to download. This again, when building. Package built, close
that gvim. And many other examples. I used to change to another tab to
do it, but always disliked it, so found using gvim was much better.

But this is personal way of doing things, I guess screen would allow
that, geany has its own terminal, konsole is capable of having an
editor, ISTR.

Konsole is good, I have tried it in a binary distribution. But for tab,
lxterm, terminator or roxterm give them. I am not wishing  to install
konsole now, because I would need new 15 packages, all included,
according to BLFS.

That is interesting. I got roxterm to open with a number of tabs, no
idea if other windows or individual startdirs would be possible. Now, I
most use lxterm, and a casual term is terminator. At least once a day, I
open an xterm in another workspace, just for cssh.

I installed it yesterday and saw how many features it has. But it has
still too many features to be learned. One thing I wanted to see was to
debug a problem I have, but it did not help me. Another time, I will
talk, eventually, about this problem.

I went to see elvis. But I have to say that I like vim/gvim, only
dislike the way it is maintained, displaying a *new version with x.y.z*
in the site, but only providing an original version x.y tar ball that
can be several years old and individual 1 to z patches. This is
misleading, for that, LFS/BLFS is always behind, Fedora and Arch are
sometimes years ahead of us, thousands of patches ahead.

Thank you all. It took some time thinking about each point and it doing
immediately or considering for later.
