Tilix VS ShellNewHandler

• Tiling Support
  Tilix allows users to split the terminal window into multiple panes, either horizontally or vertically, enabling efficient multitasking and organization of terminal sessions.
• Session Management
  Users can save layouts and configurations as sessions, allowing easy restoration of previous work environments for improved productivity.
• Customizability
  Tilix offers extensive customization options, including themes, color schemes, keybindings, and more, catering to diverse user preferences.
• Quake Mode
  A drop-down terminal feature (inspired by the console in Quake) allows for quick access to a terminal that slides from the top of the screen, enhancing convenience.
• Drag and Drop
  Users can effortlessly rearrange terminals or move tabs between different windows using a simple drag-and-drop interface.

Possible disadvantages

• Performance Overhead
  Due to its GTK-based design, Tilix may consume more system resources compared to simpler terminal emulators, potentially impacting performance on lower-end systems.
• Learning Curve
  With its extensive features and customization options, new users may face a steeper learning curve to fully leverage Tilix's capabilities compared to more straightforward terminal emulators.
• Limited Wayland Support
  Tilix's support for Wayland, a modern display server protocol, is still not as robust as its X11 support, potentially leading to compatibility issues on systems using Wayland.
• Dependency on GTK
  Since Tilix relies on the GTK framework, it may not integrate as well visually or functionally in non-GNOME desktop environments, affecting the user experience.

  FWIW, this is the only D codebase I've contributed to: https://github.com/gnunn1/tilix/. Source: over 4 years ago

• Concerned about GNOME 42 Console

  I didn't know why you said that so I looked at the tilix github site and I see a disclaimer. However, if you look at the commit rate you can see that it is still quite actively maintained and I see no issues when I use it. Source: over 4 years ago

• Transparent terminal

  I use Tilix. It's similar to GNOME Terminal, but with a lot more features. Source: almost 5 years ago

• I recently got libreoffice, but now the new option in right click looks like a mess. Can someone help me get rid of them please?

  Use Shell New Handler. Run the portable app and simply untick the items you don't want to appear in your new context menu. Source: about 4 years ago

• This menu should be easy to add/remove programs to... Who is really creating Access Databases from this menu often enough to keep it here? (Not me!) Is there an easy way to edit this?

  I've always used ShellNewHandler for this. It's a really simple portable utility that allows you to remove most of the items from that menu. Tested it out on Windows 11 and it's still compatible. Source: over 5 years ago
