Gnome-terminal is a terminal emulator application designed for GNOME desktop environment.
All settings are stored in profiles with gnome-terminal, which enables easy editing through the preferences dialog. In contrast, only the number of windows/tabs and their profiles are saved per-session. It is essential to differentiate between command line options and preferences.
As for installation, the easiest way to compile gnome-terminal is to navigate to the directory containing the package's source code and type "./configure" to adapt the package to your system. Depending on the version of your system, you might need to type "sh ./configure" to prevent "csh" from executing "configure" itself.
It takes some time for the configuration to set up, and a progress update will appear on the screen. Once complete, users can compile the package by simply typing "make" and can even run self-tests with "make check." Afterward, installation occurs with "make install," and users can remove unnecessary files with "make clean" or "make distclean." If the choice is to use "make maintainer-clean," users must regenerate files that came with the distribution, which is recommended mainly for the package's developers.
