#+title: terminal emulators
|
||||
|
||||
A terminal emulator, or terminal application, is a computer program that emulates a video terminal within some other display architecture. Though typically synonymous with a shell or text terminal, the term terminal covers all remote terminals, including [[id:a08570b0-8fe8-45a8-8f60-e45ea6b31a34][Graphical user interfaces]]. A terminal emulator inside a graphical user interface is often called a terminal window.

A terminal window allows the user access to a text terminal and all its applications such as [[id:d71414fc-349c-4763-a703-9f7092fc90d6][command-line]] interfaces (CLI) and text user interface (TUI) applications. These may be running either on the same machine or on a different one via telnet, [[id:422e07f8-c888-460f-849e-76d451946045][ssh]], dial-up, or over a direct serial connection. On [[id:5fada795-19a3-4ba6-97c0-0b70bd728a2f][Unix-like operating systems]], it is common to have one or more terminal windows connected to the local machine.
