Also consider multi-gnome-terminal. It's a Debian Unstable package
that's _much_ lighter weight than konsole and cleaner (IMO) than
powershell. It also has the excellent feature of allowing you to invoke
URLs without using a helper program like urlview. Anything that smells
like a URL gets underlined, and ctrl-clicking invokes the configured
Gnome url handler.
Cheers,
Steve
