Can I customize the GPE terminal? I mean color scheme mostly. the black on white I don't like.
The only thing I've found is Terminal font in Look & Feel settings, but it doesn't even seem to affect the terminal font, unless you have to reboot to make the changes felt.
What about the colors?
And can I open a number of tabs? Or do I have to run sereval terminal instances?
-
I too would like this... the default font is way too small.. despite the look'n'feel control panel setting, it doesn't seem to make any difference!

You need to log out/reboot for the terminal size to change.

How about the color scheme, i.e. make it green on black and so?

You edit your .Xdefaults and add the following descriptions.

Rxvt*background: black
Rxvt*foreground: green

Thank you.

Why does rxvt launch as a VT100 terminal by default? Was this a deliberate choice? Colour terminal support would be nice.

My mistake - it's only the root terminal that comes up as VT100.
The reason I mentioned it was that when you run kismet from a root terminal it comes up monochrome. But now that I've checked, when you run it from a normal terminal (after su) then it comes up in colour.

In case anyone is interested, there is a "thickness" option for rxvt that controls the width of the scrollbar. I've found that setting it to 20 produces something that I can actually get hold of with the stylus!

when you've perfected it, could you post your config file as it sounds like you've sorted out all the things that have annoyed me!

Not perfected, but this is my .Xdefaults file at the moment:
Rxvt*font: xft:Mono:pixelsize=14
Rxvt*reverseVideo: true
Rxvt*scrollColor: grey
Rxvt*troughColor: grey60
Rxvt*thickness: 20This increases the font size to something more readable, sets the display to white on black, and changes the colour and size of the scrollbar. Need to restart X after making changes of course.
