Yakuake
Quake-style terminal emulator based on KDE Konsole technology
Yakuake is a drop-down terminal emulator based on KDE Konsole technology.
Features:
- Smoothly rolls down from the top of your screen
- Tabbed interface
- Configurable dimensions and animation speed
- Skinnable
- Sophisticated D-Bus interface
YaKuake is inspired from the terminal in the Quake game: when you press a key (by default F12, but that can be changed) a terminal window slides down from the top of the screen. Press the key again, and the terminal slides back. . It is faster than a keyboard shortcut because it is already loaded into memory and as such is very useful to anyone who frequently finds themselves switching in and out of terminal sessions.
