>> If I create new terminal using Open Tab or Open Terminal, I get a fresh >> terminal. This is sometimes what I want but sometimes not. We can possibly have an array holding names of such variables, which need to be 'exported' to the new tab. Or, we can have a checkbox in gnome-terminal menus, if we want to inherit variables or not. Or, we can have 2 separate menu items: "new tab", "new tabs with environment"
Currently, I am using a dirty trick of writing them to a file in /tmp via PROMPT_COMMAND & then reading it via .bashrc. But it is clearly inefficient & error prone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1058515 Title: inheriting environmental variables when creating new terminal window or tab To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/1058515/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
