 C'mon, shed the coarse outer layer.  If I were trying to solve
 serious problems I wouldn't be concerned with Eterm having
 transparency, themes, pixmaps, and all the fun features and would
 just stick with using dtterm or konsole or something boring.

It sounds to me like you're saying Eterm isn't a serious terminal
and isn't suitable for serious usage.  I think I should be
offended. ;-P

Awww, thanks Azundris. *huggles* :-)

Maybe I missed it, but did the original request/suggestion mention why ?? 
Or is just to be something different ??

 Hi.  I haven't found that eterm or another x terminal application is cabable 
of being displayed sideways.  So instead of the terminal being oriented left-r

OK.. What *problem* are you trying to solve here?  Display of languages that
actually render top-to-bottom, or dealing with a monitor that will physically
rotate for portrait/landscape, or what?

I ask because the best solution may be different depending on what you're
trying to accomplish with a sideways terminal

[E-devel] sideways terminal

2003-10-27 Thread Eddie Anzalone

Enlightenment Developers,



Hi.  I haven't found that eterm or another x terminal application is cabable of being 
displayed sideways.  So instead of the terminal being oriented left-right (like 
everything on the screen), it would be oriented top-bottom and it would scroll 
towards the center of the screen.  It doesn't seem impossible.  The terminal app just 
paints ascii characters into the window right?  Maybe you would need a special 
sideways font?Or maybe.. copy the osX genie minimize animation so that you can 
have crazy shaped windows.  So what do you think, would that fit into the freedom of 
choice philosophy..?



Thanks, and by the way I've been using Eterm regularyly for years now and appreciate 
all the work you've put into it.
