This is appalling. I do all my work on the console (apart from web browsing), and with this development, Linux effectively becomes unusable to me. I will NOT be bullied into using second rate alternatives like X-Windows terminals.
Wow. I don't think I've run into someone that was a devout {physical,virtual} /console/ user in quite a while.
I'm curious what you do in the Linux console that can't be done in a terminal emulator.
I know that there is a lot of difference in different terminal emulators. -- I *strongly* prefer XTerm as it does things that other terminal emulators have never heard of.
Please share if you do things that /can/ be done in the Linux console that /can't/ be done in a terminal emulator.
If it's just preference, then hat's off to you. -- Grant. . . . unix || die
