Hi Simon,

Thanks to your recommendation, I just started using roxterm. What a
breath of fresh air! Tabbed. Multiple profiles mean all sorts of
different terminals for different needs. No unholy union to a "desktop
environment" other than the rox filemanager system.

I need several different types of terminal emulators for several
different types of jobs. From now on I'm using roxterm instead of
xfce4-terminal for all new construction.

Thank you!
