exterminate

terminal emulator application like xterm

example

Just type exterminate. You will be in a graphical shell just like xterm or gnome-terminal, except running with chrome using --app.

To render html pages and images inline in the terminal use the xtshow command:

exterminate

You can render any html you want on the terminal! Here's some javascript and html that parses the query string and renders it... in comic sans!

var qs = require('querystring');
 
var params = qs.parse(window.location.search.replace(/^\?/, ''));
var text = document.createTextNode(JSON.stringify(params));
document.body.appendChild(text);
<html>
<head>
<style>
  body {
    font-family: "Comic Sans MS";
    color: rgb(100,255,255);
    font-size: 1.5em;
  }
</style> 
</head>
<body>
<script src="bundle.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
$ browserify main.js > bundle.js
