Gtk-terminal is a low-resource X terminal.
Gtk-terminal is a lightweight x terminal that consists of only the shell. The terminal emulation, or "stuff in the middle," comes from the VTE widget.
Installation is simple and straightforward. First, navigate to the directory containing the package's source code and run the command `./configure` to configure the package for your system. If you are using `csh` on an old version of System V, you may need to run `sh ./configure` to prevent `csh` from executing `configure` itself. The `configure` command will run for a while and print messages about which features it is checking for.
Next, use the command `make` to compile the package, and optionally run `make check` to run any self-tests that come with the package. Afterward, run the command `make install` to install the programs and any data files and documentation.
If you want to clean up your directory, use the `make clean` command to remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory. To remove the files that `configure` created and compile the package for a different computer, run `make distclean`. There is also a `make maintainer-clean` target, but it is intended mostly for developers.
Overall, gtk-terminal is a great option for those in search of a lightweight x terminal. The installation is easy and straightforward, and the package comes with the necessary components to get started.
