Guake Drop Down Terminal
#1
Has anyone tried Guake? I just set it up on my Gnome desktop and I really like the idea of have a terminal a couple of key-strokes away..

Here's a demo of Guake

It looks neat, I'm a real CLI junkie so it's always good to have a terminal handy.

This is the one thing I really don't like about GNU/Linux...All this great software but its only available through word of mouth or digging through large repositories...Its kind of like going to a flea market or a rummage sale and wondering around until you find something interesting.

Quake is cool, I admit.

However, if you just want a quick keyboard way to start a normal terminal, go to System-->Preferences-->Keyboard Shortcut

Go down to "Run a terminal".

Click it once. Over on the "Shortcut" side, "New Shortcut" should appear. Now, type in the shortcut you want. I use ALT-T. Close the window. Now, when you do the shortcut (ALT-T in my case), a Terminal window pops up.Oui
