[I have not yet found an acceptable multi-screen replacement for Terminal.] Given the small OLPC screen, what I do is start two instances of Terminal - then use one to "read" information (i.e., for 'reference') and the other to "write" what I'm working on (i.e., for 'output'). This usually involves a lot of navigating back and forth between these two Terminal instances. "Cycling around" seems very cumbersome (and it actually is time-consuming). Maybe one of these years I'll write some scripts to 'select' each instance, then attach them to keyboard keys. That should give me good "operator performance" - a single keypress and I get to a specific instance. mikus (G1G1) _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
