QTerminator

A Qt port of Terminator, the popular tabbed/split terminal emulator — built from the ground up in PyQt6 over QTermWidget.

What it does

Tabs and splits — horizontal and vertical splits with recursive nesting; tab bar with close, rename, reorder
Per-terminal titlebar — title, group indicator, read-only badge, activity status
Terminal grouping — assign terminals to named groups; broadcast input to a group or all terminals
Read-only mode — lock a terminal to prevent stray keystrokes
Profile system — named profiles with per-terminal switching and cycling
Plugin system — URLHandler, MenuProvider, OutputWatcher base classes; user + built-in plugin dirs
Preferences dialog — font, 13 built-in color schemes, cursor shape, scrollback, tab position
Layout save/restore — splits and tabs restored automatically on next launch
CLI arguments — working directory, title, execute command, geometry, no-restore
50+ keyboard shortcuts for every common operation
