Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
currently I am using urxvt as my standard terminal |
| 4 |
application, which is FAST and reliable. |
| 5 |
But it only emulates 24bit colors if instructed so. |
| 6 |
It maps 24bit rgb to 256 color using a fast but not |
| 7 |
total correct formula to to do (which is no critism - |
| 8 |
its just the way ot is implemented). |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
I googled qyite a bit to find 24color terminal |
| 11 |
emulators and the one, which came closer to |
| 12 |
what I want is sakure. |
| 13 |
But comparing the speed of sakura with urxvt |
| 14 |
(catting a long log file twice while measureing the time |
| 15 |
of the second cat) it shows that sakura needs |
| 16 |
six times more time than urxvt. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Combining this with the compile sessions, which |
| 19 |
are one of the core features of Gentoo ;)))... |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
What I want is the "fastest" possible (...) |
| 22 |
terminal emulator supporting true color (24bit). |
| 23 |
I dont need fancy configuring options (two exception: |
| 24 |
TABS! and lightweighted) and I dont want KDE stuff (or |
| 25 |
any other bloated thing with thousands of dependencies...) |
| 26 |
I am simply using openbox. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
What are your experiences? |

PS: The terminal emulator dont need to be part |
| 36 |
of Gentoo necessarily...if it is compilable |
| 37 |
by a human being withoyt super powers... ;) |
