Terminator Manual (GTK3)

Fully fleshed-out manual for Terminator.

The main Terminator icon was created by Cory Kontros, and provided under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence.

This Manual and included images are wholly new pieces created by the current maintainer Steve Boddy, and are distributed under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence, as are the horrific attempts by yours truly at using Cory’s icon to provide page identities.

Indicate the explicit difference between "Zoom terminal" and "Maximise terminal"

Hello

In the Using the keyboard section appears a table with the 2 following features:

Zoom terminal       Ctrl+Shift+Z
Maximise terminal   Ctrl+Shift+X

Practically both do the same. What is explicitly the exact difference? Consider to add a brief explanation below of that table such as [2] and [3] do.

Customizing Window & Terminal Titles using PROMPT_COMMAND: Examples

I'd like to share a few tips that aren't covered in the documentation.
@mattrose, perhaps you could consider adding an entry to the documentation for this.

---

By modifying the PROMPT_COMMAND variable in your .bashrc, you can customize both the window and terminal titles.

Include the following variable definitions in your .bashrc file, and activate the desired one:

# pwd only
PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -en "\033]0; $("pwd") \a"'

## Regular
PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -en "\033]0; [ $("logname")㉿$("hostname") ] :: [ $("pwd") ] \a"'

## Fancy
PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -en "\033]0; 【 $("logname")㉿$("hostname") 】 :: 【 $("pwd") 】 \a"'

## ZEN (Clean Window Title & Title Bar)
PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -en "\033]0; \a"'

Link to plugin creating tutorial doesn't work

Tutorial from here https://gnome-terminator.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugins.html#creating-your-own-plugins

The following guide is initially sourced from a tutorial written by Chris Jones back in April 2010. I’m reproducing it here as a precaution, although I don’t expect the original will disappear. It will get rewritten and expanded as more knowledge and information is added.

Why exists 2 domains about documentation for Terminator?

Hello

Doing a research in the web I found these two documentation pages for Terminator:

• https://gnome-terminator.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
• https://terminator-gtk3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

It seems the official is the former (according with this GitHub project), so why exists the latter?

Furthermore the https://gnome-terminator.org page does not have a link to reach the documentation page - already reported at: gnome-terminator/gnome-terminator.github.io#33

Thanks for your understanding
