[Thomas Darrell Lee]

I have a ThinkPad Chromebook and I need a good/best Terminal app for it.
Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Hi, after testing few apps I prefer using the Linux development environment, only downside is the amount of space used

Nope there is a Linux developer mode that installs Debian in an
LXC/LXD container

On 10/15/22, 'Darrell Lee' via Upstate Carolina Linux Users Group

Hey, Luna and Adner,

It looks like our November meeting next week might be short topics,
would either or both of you be interested in demo'ing this thing y'all
are talking about, "Linux Development Environment/Mode" on a
Chromebook? I've never seen or heard of it before, but would be
interested in being aware of it. (Don't know much about LXC/LXD
either, so that would be cool too.)

Sadly in Sweden, so a bit too far away

Sorry, I would like to think if I were in Sweden, I wouldn't be sad. :^) j/k

Nevertheless, even though you're in Sweden, you could still demo
online via Jitsi. But, I would think it would probably be very late,
18:30 EDT is something like 23:30 CET?

Starting a new job now in November, so have too much other stuff to
think about, maybe in December during the holiday break

pclock.py is a very short script I wrote to display a custom digital clock -- very simple:

cat pclock.sh  
#!/bin/sh
while :
do
 date +"%a %d %b %r"
 sleep 0.2s
done  | { trap "pkill -f $0" EXIT ; yad --title=clock --geometry=220x25+220+16 --form --cycle-read --field=": " --no-buttons --undecorated  ;
}
