You should also look at Tilda (http://tilda.sourceforge.net) (no relationship with me) which works also very well and is available through Synaptic

There is transparancy in yeahconsole. At least partially, the desktop-background is visible through the console. But of course, it would be a lot more useful if open windows would be visible as well.

Wierd that – I’m surfing looking for a bugfix for yakuake and I copme accross this telling me to switch to yeahconsole when yeahconsole’s the terminal emulator that I moved to yakuake from! I love yeahconsole, it was my first Linux-love anbd I’ll never deny that it’s an absolutely solid little app but eventually I found that it jsut wasn’t extensible enough, no transparancy for example, and that yakuake offered more by the way of customizationability – awesome app though, and far more lightweight than yakuake (for those with little RAM).

Hi,
it is nice, but Alt+. seems not to work, is it possible to fix that?

Hi Mistral, I don’t think aterm can be embedded, so this pretty much counts it as not compatible with yeahconsole or any other terminal emulation wrappers.

And what about aterm?
Why it isn’t work?
