GNOME Terminator is a free and open-source terminal emulator for Linux programmed in Python, licensed under GPL-2.0-only. The goal of the 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 packages exist for Arch,[1] Debian/Ubuntu,[2] Fedora,[3] OpenSUSE,[4] Gentoo,[5] Snap,[6] FreeBSD,[7] OpenBSD.[8] In 2017 took second place in voting at opensource.com, after Gnome Terminal.[9]

History

Terminator is not a fork of GNOME Terminal (which is written in C); instead, it was developed from scratch by Chris Jones, entirely in Python (based on PyGObject to interact with the desktop environment and Python VTE providing the GUI component), but much of the behavior of Terminator is based on GNOME Terminal.[10] Terminator began from vte-demo.py in VTE and the gedit terminal plugin, which was useful to the authors for figuring out VTE's API.

In July 2013, Steve Boddy succeeded Jones and took the lead of the project.

GTK3+ support started near the end of 2012. The first version supporting GTK3+ was published by the end of 2016.

In April 2020 the project was forked to GitHub due to a lack of activity on Launchpad.[11][12]
