Meganerd recompiled the terminal for gemini which rotated the display, but (like the original terminal) it has a problem with the cursor being graphically out of alignment with the text on long lines. I installed "toeterm" from openrepos and that doesn't have the cursor issue. I just checked and I didn't have to modify any qml either. If you ever want to modify qml, they exist in:
/usr/share/<package_name>[/qml]
eg. toeterm is:
/usr/share/toeterm/qml
You can modify the qml in there to change the look and feel. I always keep backups in case things go wrong. If things are upside down, just search for Landscape, or Orientation and change Landscape to LandscapeInverted.
Toeterm is great. Unlike the default terminal, it behaves as expected when one gives the exit command.
btw -- I mentioned Midnight Commander, a terminal-mode application for Linux written by Miguel de Icaza, the other day. Turns out, it's on OpenRepos also. For better than two decades the first thing I install on any Linux machine is mc. It's a real Swiss army knife.
Though it would be a lot more useful to me on Sailfish if I could figure whether/how F-keys are mapped, because many of the functions of mc are tied to function keys. I think we have them through Adam B's Linux keymap, but with the reflash I haven't even booted Linux yet, so I haven't upgraded, well, anything on that side, and I don't think the Linux keymap extends to Sailfish.
(Actually, does Sailfish share anything with a Linux installation? I figure not; otherwise we'd be able to do phone stuff from Linux.)
