Currently using GNOME Terminal because it works fine for me; not as much because I prefer it above all others. While using KDE, I've happily used Konsole. rxvt and rxvt-unicode have served me well also. Though, xterm or rxvt-unicode would be more serviceable now for Unicode support. > And why? It just works. :-) > And while I am at it, dark background or light background? Dark background, light text. Usually light gray on black. I'm currently using the Rxvt color scheme for GNOME Terminal. Was previously using Tango but found to be too... subdued. The Rxvt color scheme has a crisp appearance to me. Linux console would be my second choice of color scheme. I've used a similar color schema when using Konsole as well. Also, I've gone back to a solid background, no transparency. While transparency looks neat, eventually I find it not as good for readability. > I use konsole, its pretty slow compared to others, but with > all the extra set of features + bells and whistles included, > tabbing, and more importantly my mutt color settings just > look so w0W in konsole, and like wise the fixed/smooth font > is so readable... Tabs are a feature for which I've never found much use in a terminal. However, I am a religious user of GNU screen.
