Tilda, the Hidden and Borderless terminal
January 22, 2007 – 6:47 pmA friend of mine told about this terminal, i think its useful, so I decided to share it 
Tilda is a terminal with no border and is hidden until a key is pressed, then it reveals it self in the configured position. Press the key combination again and it hides.
You can configure the font, size of the window, and some other options.
Install in Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install tilda
To start it:
Alt+F2 and run : tilda &
The first time you run it, the configuration window will open. If you need to change the setting type :
$ tilda -C
To make it start automaticly, just add it to your session in:
System - Preferences - Sessions - Startup Programs.
Tilda’s Page: http://tilda.sourceforge.net/
There is another software alike, its name is yakuake (Yakuakes Page) and it for KDE.
