# cowterm

What the hell is a cowmonk?
|
|
|
|
## What is cowterm?
|
|
cowterm is a really simple terminal that is written in pure C, using Xorg Libraries. I don't recommend anyone seriously using this.
|
|
If you wish to, then good luck I guess? Here are some features that are in cowterm:
|
|
- You can kill processes in it using Ctrl+C
|
|
- Yes, this had to be manually implemented
|
|
- You can clear it using Ctrl+L
|
|
- It won't clear if you type in "clear"
|
|
- You can delete everything behind the cursor using Ctrl+U
|
|
- Essentials amirite?
|
|
- It can be resized
|
|
- So many Segfaults to get to this revolutionary moment
|
|
- It's hella lightweight
|
|
- like seriously, it is only like >1k sloc so like no ram usage at all
|
|
|
|
Here are some ~~downsides~~ upsides to using cowterm:
|
|
- no scrolling
|
|
- who needs it amirite? bloat booo
|
|
- boot it up like a chainsaw
|
|
- Might segfault once or twice before it actually decides to work, I have no idea how to fix this
|
|
- Fonts are hell to configure
|
|
- No wayland
|
|
- Actually this might be the best "feature" yet
|
|
- ~~Missing critical features for a terminal~~ Removed lots of bloat
|
|
|
|
## Building & Installation

### Dependencies:
