工作上需要開很多的 terminal, 但是螢幕就這麼一丁點大, 除了用 screen 之外, 另外一個選擇就是使用 terminator(host at launchpad), 它可以將畫面做切割, 比使用 tab 的方式直觀多了, 在觀察 loading, 或是 coding 的時候都非常好用, 而且分割的畫面可以用滑鼠拖拉, 真的很正點.

Terminator安裝方式如下：
The goal of this 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).
Much of the behaviour of Terminator is based on GNOME Terminal, and we are adding more features from that as time goes by, but we also want to extend out in different directions with useful features for sysadmins and other users. If you have any suggestions, please file wishlist bugs!
