xterm and urxvt are unusable for me. It doesn't matter how fast they can cat a file or start fast... they have way to many cons. I was comparing with gnome-terminal and sakura, that are gtk based. Using e17, it probably makes sense why terminology starts faster here. > >> - It uses EFL > > hell yeah. :) > >> - configuration saving > > really? that's a plus? i just put it in because it was the only logical thing > to do :) Yeah... I've used gnome-terminal in the past. Needing to start g-s-d to save your configuration is a big WTF?! > >> All the rest I always turn off.

It's ok to have that as default since you like it so much; having the option to turn that off is way better though Lucas De Marchi ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
