XFCE terminal won't work because every instance shares the same PID

It's a bummer but I think we just can't support that one.

It's like urxvtd. Is there any way to fork it ? (If not we will be adding that to not supported list).

What do you mean with "fork it"?

xfce4-terminal --disable-server

That works! Do you think it should be noted as a necessary workaround in the README? Still sad we can't make it work out of the box :/

Yes, it's works on a client server model by default. We can guide them to make a desktop shortcut. (As most of xfce4-terminal user will not use some kind of keyboard daemon).

Makes sense! My only concern is if there's any side effects to doing this (e.g. missing XFCE terminal functions)

What do you think of 63460ab (xfce-instructions branch)?

Couldn't do better. Awesome.

After merging remove the 'experimental' warning.
