So I came across Enlightenment's "Terminology" terminal emulator today, and they have many features we don't.
I recommend skimming the ibPziLRGvkg youtube video. How long before we can set videos as the background to our terminals? I find modern life is definitely not distracting enough, and what I really want is to type white text onto a background of a moving snowscape. Christoph, is this something you're working on yet? Or is the plan still just the boring "make stuff work well" agenda?
