man, evilvte is good. but can you add to project such things as :
1)"Normal cfg" . /etc/evilvte/config.h <- this is not fun imho.
2) Ability to bind any hot keys not only "CTRL + etc".

|
I plan to support $HOME/.config/evilvte/config.h in 0.4.5.
I will not support it in 0.4.4 final, though.
Do you really want a config.h put in global /etc ?
guest |
2) Ability to bind any hot keys not only "CTRL + etc".
|
It will make the config.h too complicated.
I plan to support something like "Alt + ←" and "Alt + →", but not "Alt + everything".
If you need some specific key bindings, I am happy to add it as you request. :-)

I think that "$HOME/.config/evilvte/config.h in 0.4.5" is good place
for cfg. but It seems to me that idea of config.h is bad. because it
needs recompile evilvte after reconfiguring. Why dont you want to make
this part of project as in all apps: modifing cfg THEN restart application to apply
changes?

but it will give evilvte an advantage=)

[start cut from /etc/evilvte/config.h]
/* Use || for multiple hotkeys
* (event->keyval == GDK_A || event->keyval == GDK_a)
* GDK_A = "Shift + a", so hotkey will be "Ctrl + Shift + a"
* See /usr/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdkkeysyms.h for GDK_* definitions */
[end cut from /etc/evilvte/config.h]
This cut from config.h is confusing me. it says that i can set multiple keys for a event. But the red part of cut is false. Becase if i ll put such string i get two variants of hotkeys for my event: CTRL + A and CTRL + a, not ctrl + shift +a...can you explain it pls?
Evilvte is not able to use combinations such as CTRL + ALT + <any hotkey> , isnt it? or iam wrong?

I just want a simple terminal emulator that I can use everyday. :-P
In fact, evilvte have implanted a lot of features that I never use. (But I did tested them and I am sure they do work.)
I think you may want to try lilyterm: http://lilyterm.luna.com.tw/index_en.html
Reasons about why I choose libVTE can be found on FAQ.

It is a known issue.
Keyboard events may change their behaviors in varies settings for X11 / GTK+. (different keyboard X11 drivers or different keyboard settings)
I personal only use the evdev Xorg driver for both my keyboard and mouse.
There are some generic solutions for it, but they will make evilvte bloated.
guest | Evilvte is not able to use combinations such as CTRL + ALT + <any hotkey> , isnt it? |
No, evilvte can not use CTRL + ALT + <any hotkey> currently.

I have almost forgotten about it, but began to configure evilvte again and have remembered that it cant to start in full screen mode=) or i cant find it in your config.h^^ can you add it (starting in fullscreen) to evilvte?
Why it cant be work: #define CTRL_TOGGLE_FULLSCREEN (event->keyval == GDK_M) ?

Provided in 0.4.4~pre9. :-)
#define COMMAND_FULLSCREEN TRUE
Notice:
1. evilvte does not handle geometry change events, so you might confront with problems about window resizing.
2. Toggling between original size and fullscreen does work in kwin(KDE), jwm, and evilwm. It may not work properly in some specific window managers (WMs).
3. It is hard to keep geometry in libvte based terminal emulators. Even gnome-terminal and XFCE Terminal has this kind of problems. As far as I know, lilyterm and vteapp.c[1] has least geometry bug. All other libvte based terminal emulators has a few or more geometry bugs. It is *VERY* hard to fix them. Some working code in some WMs do not work in other WMs.
[1] vteapp.c is a demo program in libvte without multi-tab function. Those geometry codes do not work properly with multi-tab.
guest | Why it cant be work: #define CTRL_TOGGLE_FULLSCREEN (event->keyval == GDK_M) ? |
Please try Ctrl-M and Ctrl-Shift-M.
Ctrl-Shift-M works on my machine.
If both do not work, please enable it in right-click menu:
#define MENU_CUSTOM "Toggle fullscreen"

Hi , its again me =)
You dont want to add binding any key in evilvte, but can you add to it CTRL + ALT + "KEY" ? CTRL+KEY is not good for programs which is running in terminal, for example rtorrent,mc,herrie and etc. this programs have many binds as CTRL + KEY and it does work with evilvte unpleasant=(

For current architecture of codes, I plan to add an option that toggles the usage of ALT.
So every CTRL + "KEY" will become CTRL + ALT + "KEY".
If you need some more fine settings, there is no convenient way to do it.
(For example, use CTRL + "KEY" and ALT + "KEY" and Shift + "KEY" and others + "KEY" at the same time.)

I am also the official maintainer of several other Debian packages.
I just closed 3 bugs these days after Lenny release. (Those bugs are not related with evilvte.)
I plan to release 0.4.4 next week. :-P
