Terminal in developer mode is horrible.
This is a repeat of what I posted in the blog:
I checked, it’s 2019 and the VT102 had it’s 40th anniversary last August. The command line interface to an OS has been around for a while.
So why is the terminal provided so bad?
I mean, it is AWFUL.
Responsiveness is horrible, characters disappear, the popup indicator of which key is struck doesn’t understand case and after an installation that sends output to the screen it is unusable and in some sort of split screen schizophrenic state.
If I am going to have to install EVERY TIME via the terminal, can we have a decent terminal please?
