## New home on GitHub

In April of 2020 we started moving **`Terminator`** to GitHub. A new team wanted to continue the work of the original authors.

Unfortunately we are not able to adopt the Launchpad project, so we could only inform users were possible.

You can find the project on https://github.com/gnome-terminator/terminator

## Description

The goal of this project is to produce a useful tool for arranging terminals.
It is inspired by programs such as `gnome-multi-term`, `quadkonsole`, etc. in that
the main focus is arranging terminals in grids (tabs is the most common default
method, which Terminator also supports).
Terminator was originally developed by Chris Jones in 2007 as a simple, 300-ish line python script. Since then, it has become The Robot Future of Terminals. Originally inspired by projects like quadkonsole and gnome-multi-term and more recently by projects like Iterm2, and Tilix, It lets you combine and recombine terminals to suit the style you like. If you live at the command-line, or are logged into 10 different remote machines at once, you should definitely try out Terminator.

When you run **`Terminator`**, you will get a terminal in a window, just like almost
every other terminal emulator available. There is also a titlebar which will
update as shells/programs inside the terminal tell it to. Also on the titlebar
is a small button that opens the grouping menu. From here you can put terminals
into groups, which allows you to control multiple terminals simultaneously.
