README
<p align="center"> <img src="./data/batata.svg" width=252 alt="Batata logo" /><br> </p> # Batata 🥔 Batata is a Gnome/GTK4 tiled terminal emulator for people that need to have several terminals open at the same time and want to easily navigate between them. Something similar to [Tilix](https://github.com/gnunn1/tilix)/[tmux]()/[Terminator](https://github.com/gnome-terminator/terminator) but flavored to my taste. ## Demo Here's an ugly demo where a forget to showcase that it support tabs too!! [](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdpsOAt3JpI) # Shortcuts YOU NEED TO KNOW | Action | Shorcut | |------------------|----------------------------------------| | Ctrl+Shift+N | Spawn a new terminal in current stack. | | Alt+Shift+Arrows | Move terminal to that direction. | | Alt+Arrows | Focus the terminal that direction. | | Ctrl+Shift+X | Maximize/restore current terminal. | | Ctrl+Shift+T | Spawns a new terminal in a new tab. | | Alt+Numbers | Show tabs 0-9. | # Why this name? [Lucas Schulze](https://github.com/lucschulze) uses the word "potato" and/or "batata" as values for things when debugging stuff, everyone likes batatas. # Current Status As a _eat your own dog food_ enthusiast I currently using it every day, however it still may eat your terminals. - [ ] Fix Desktop::Widget known issues. - [ ] Fancy widget to choose themes. - [ ] Move widget from one tab to another when move(:left/:right) returns false. - [ ] Show terminals from all tabs in `Desktop::Switcher` in different columns. ## Things that can be done after a first release - [ ] Add support for translations. - [ ] Finish safe-signals patch on GI-Crystal to avoid memory leaks here. ## Installation ### ArchLinux It's available on AUR. ``` yay -S batata batata ``` ### Flatpak Not yet on flathub, but you can build and install it doing: ``` make flatpak flatpak run io.github.hugopl.Batata ``` ### From Source You need the development packages for libadwaita version >= 1.6 and vte4 >= 0.78. ``` make && sudo make install && sudo make post-install batata ``` ## Contributors - [Hugo Parente Lima](https://github.com/hugopl) - creator and maintainer
