They are certainly not the same thing, i'll simply put in the lead enlightenment devs response to someone else from the irc channel yesterday: Jul 14 03:36:25 <bunjiboys> Hi, after a reinstall of my Debian box, I am no longer able to get Eterm working. When i try to start it, it opens the window just fine, but it never opens the shell. I tried settings different commands to run using the -e switch to change what to execute, but it seems like it never gets to that point. After running with both strace and --debug it looks like it is stuck in a loop trying to read a socket (/tmp/.X11-unix/X0). Strace output: https://bunjiboys <raster> bunjiboys: no idea <raster> i havent used eterm for over a decade <raster> also note - thats the socket use to ttalk to x <raster> so its talking to x all day <raster> thats how you draw or get input <raster> i use terminology <raster> it's actively developed <raster> and uses modern efl <raster> eterm does not <bunjiboys> I was hoping not to have to change terms, been using Eterm for well over a decade now, just so used to it :) <raster> then get used to it not working <raster> or fix it yoursefl <raster> http://git.enlightenment.org/apps/eterm.git/ <raster> thats the activity on it <raster> one commit in march <raster> another janruary last year <raster> anoither in 2012 <raster> etc. <raster> not very active <bunjiboys> yeah, guess I do need to start shopping around for alternatives <cippp> for sure you will like terminology <raster> terminology is a far cry from eterm <raster> it is pretty different <raster> on the fancy-side it does a whole host more <bunjiboys> well, i didnt really use most of the features of Eterm, I disabled all the UI stuff and so on, its probably more an "Ive always used it, so Ill keep using it" thing <bunjiboys> Although, having been working on OSX recently, I wouldnt mind something that comes a little closer to iTerm2 <raster> well then... you'll be needing to do your own debugging <raster> as such enlightenment has moved on <raster> we build on efl <raster> (our libs) <raster> eterm does not <raster> it is effectively not part of enlightenment as a project anymore <raster> it's legacy we don't work on, support etc. <raster> it doesn't use our library infra <raster> and doesn't even visually fit in <bunjiboys> my point was that I'm not against finding something else, just never looked <raster> sure <raster> just saying that if you don't move - you're not going to get any help here <raster> terminology is the "e terminal" <raster> it uses efl <raster> it's modern <raster> http://www.enlightenment.org/p.php?p=about/terminology&l=en
