I have fbterm installed and I’m attempting to use it with the solarized color scheme. I have not been able to find any information about this. The colors are already added to my .Xresources and working with xterm. Is there any way to use this colorscheme in the framebuffer?
I’m using the following sequence of commands in my .bashrc file to alter the appearance of my linux terminal. It fills the screen line by line with a pattern made out of characters. There is no abstraction, the characters are from a set within the command itself:
I came across a sentence in vimdoc:
I connect to a Slackware server. When a command is longer than the size of the putty window, the line continues in the same line, and the start of the command disappears as I continue adding to the same command, just putting a “<” at the beginning of the line.
If you fire up a terminal and call an executable (assuming one that’s line oriented for simplicity) you get a reply to the command from the executable. How does this get printed to you (the user)? Does the terminal do something like pexpect? (poll waiting for output) or what? How does it get notified of output to be printed out? And how does a terminal start a program? (Is it something akin to python’s os.fork()? ) I’m puzzled how a terminal works, I’ve been playing with some terminal emulator and I still don’t get how all this magic works. I’m looking at the source of konsole (kde) and yakuake (possibly uses konsole) an I can’t get where all that magic happens.

I’m on a Mac but I think this is generally Unix-applicable. I’m in the process of learning shell scripting and there’s something I seem to be missing. When I’m in the ordinary terminal, I can use scripting syntax like for loops and such in conjunction with commands to do stuff. But….bash opens an interpreter for … Read more
Is there any tool/command in Linux that I can use to run a command in more than one tab simultaneously? I want to run the same command: ./myprog argument1 argument2 simultaneously in more than one shell to check if the mutexes are working fine in a threaded program. I want to be able to increase the number of instances of this program so as to put my code under stress later on.
I’m looking for a way to watch YouTube videos in terminal (not in a browser or another window, but right there, in any bash session).
