TotalTerminal

TotalTerminal is a cool tool that lets you interact directly with the UNIX side of your Mac OS X operating system. You can do this through a Visor window that slides down whenever you hit a keyboard shortcut. So, if you need to type in commands from the command-line prompt, it's super easy and quick!

Customizing Your Experience

One of the best parts about TotalTerminal is how customizable it is! You can tweak startup parameters, group windows, change appearances, and adjust settings. Plus, you can assign hot-keys to make everything even smoother.

Multiple Displays? No Problem!

If you're using multiple displays on your Mac, you're in luck! TotalTerminal lets you pick which screen the Visor window shows up on. You can also easily change where the window appears and add slide and fade animations with just a few clicks.

Enhance Your Terminal Window

For those who want more control, TotalTerminal has options to adjust background opacity and add some cool animations using Quart Compositions. This means your terminal doesn't just have to be functional; it can look great too!

Pasting Made Easy

Pasting lines in your Terminal window is simple with TotalTerminal! Just use the contextual menu to paste what you need. Switching between tabs is easy too—just press "cmd" plus the number of the tab you want.

Status Bar Icon & Preferences

TotalTerminal even helps by automatically copying your selections! You'll see a status bar icon where you can access its menu or bring up the Visor or Preferences window. In Preferences, you can change text colors, backgrounds, character sets, and choose customizable shells for an even better experience!

NOTE: TotalTerminal will work in OS X 10.11 El Capitan only if you partially disable System Integrity Protection using the "csrutil enable --without debug" command after booting into Recovery OS.
