terminal emulator application like xterm
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:
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
