# LXTerminal

LXTerminal is a VTE-based terminal emulator with support for multiple tabs.  It

is completely desktop-independent and does not have any unnecessary

dependencies. In order to reduce memory usage and increase the performance all

instances of the terminal are sharing a single process.

## Building and installation

### Dependencies

This dependency is listed as the package name used in Debian.  If your

distribution is neither Debian nor its derivatives, you could find equivalents

for your target distribution.

Basic requirements for building:

* libglib2.0-dev

* libgtk2.0-dev

* libvte-dev

* autotools-dev

* intltool

For generating man pages (`./configure --enable-man`):

* xsltproc

* libxml2-utils

* docbook-xml

* docbook-xsl

### Building on Debian, Ubuntu or their derivatives from git

You may try:

```

# Install tools and build dependencies

sudo apt install git xsltproc libxml2-utils docbook-xml docbook-xsl

sudo apt build-dep lxterminal

# Get the source code from git

git clone https://github.com/lxde/lxterminal.git

cd lxterminal

# Build and install

./autogen.sh

./configure --enable-man

make

sudo make install

```

Note that if you get the message `E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your

sources.list`, it means you need to add `deb-src` URI into

`/etc/apt/sources.list` to find the build dependencies.  Try duplicating the

URI of the main repository and replace `deb` with `deb-src`.
