GNOME Terminator is an open-source terminal emulator for GNU/Linux programmed in Python. The goal of the project is to produce a useful tool for arranging terminals. It is inspired by programs such as gnome-multi-term, quadkonsole, etc. In that the main focus is arranging terminals in grids (tabs is the most common default method, which Terminator also supports). Terminator exists in default repositories for Arch[1], Debian/Ubuntu[2], Fedora[3], OpenSUSE[4], Gentoo[5], Snap[6], FreeBSD[7]. In 2017 took second place in voting at opensource.com, after Gnome Terminal[8]. Terminator is not a fork of GNOME Terminal (this last is written in C), It is a development from scratch of Chris Jones, entirely in Python (based on PyGObject to interact with the desktop environment and Python VTE providing a GUI component terminal), but much of the behavior of Terminator is based on GNOME Terminal:.[9].. Terminator began by copying code from the vte-demo.py in the vte widget package, and the gedit terminal plugin (which was useful for authors at figuring out vte's API).
In July 2013, Steve Boddy is the successor to Jones and takes the lead of the project.
The support GTK3+ starts as soon as the end of 2012. The first version supporting GTK3+ is published by the end of 2016.
In April of 2020 the project started moving to GitHub[10], as a fork, due to the lack of activity in Launchpad[11]

In April of 2020 we started moving Terminator to GitHub. A new team wanted to continue the work of the original authors.

Sadly the old team of Terminator have given up maintaining the project, there hasn't been any activity on Launchpad for years now. As a user and the current maintainer of the package in Debian I have great interest in keeping the project alive.

Conflict of interest? But this is open source software, and I am not a developer of this software, I just use it, like many other people[edit]
