This software offers active management of XFree86 xterm features.
One of xtermcontrol's key benefits is that it lets advanced users issue any xterm control sequence. Users will find options such as --fg=COLOR, --bg=COLOR, --colorN=COLOR, --highlight=COLOR and more to fully customize their xterm experience. For instance, you can choose a specific foreground or background color, set the highlight color, or choose a custom cursor color. If you want to change the mouse pointer background color, xtermcontrol has you covered too.
In addition, xtermcontrol lets you navigate the font menu by index or relative size using '#+N' or '#-N'. You'll also have options to fully customize your window title and specify size and position. Note that mechanisms such as Bash and PROMPT_COMMAND may overwrite the title as the program can only handle positive XOFF and YOFF offsets.
Reporting of properties is also available with xtermcontrol, including foreground color, background color, the position of the text area, or window size. With window manipulations features such as iconifying, de-iconifying, raising, and lowering windows available, users have complete control and flexibility.
Lastly, xtermcontrol enables you to force the software to read configurations from a specified file or skip the environment variable check if you choose to do so. There are also verbose reports available and a print help and exit function. In summary, xtermcontrol is an excellent software tool that gives users total control over their xterm experience.
