Additionally one can jump to the top using `g` and to the bottom using `G`. Navigation is also accessible in command mode via `:next`, `:prev` and `:jump <INDEX>`. + +Insert mode may be entered manually using `i` and exited using `Shift+ESC`. The currently selected terminal instance is killable via `d`. Command mode is entered whenever one presses `:` in normal mode. + +A list of all running processes and their respective index is exposed via `:ls`. + +Settings may be explored and changed using `:set` in command mode, e.g. the window background is changeable via `:set window background <COLOR>`. + +Furthermore _MetaTerm_'s command mode exposes a JavaScript prompt through `:exec <COMMAND>`. + +## Screenshot + + + +[Github]: https://github.com/KnairdA/MetaTerm/ +[cgit]: http://code.kummerlaender.eu/MetaTerm/ +[QMLTermWidget]: https://github.com/Swordfish90/QMLTermWidget/ |
