    Terminator

    Terminator

    multiple GNOME terminals in one window

    Terminator was originally developed by Chris Jones in 2007 as a simple, 300-ish line Python script. Since then, it has become The Robot Future of Terminals. Originally inspired by projects like quadkonsole and gnome-multi-term and more recently by projects like Iterm2, and Tilix, It lets you combine and recombine terminals to suit the style you like. If you live at the command line or are logged into 10 different remote machines at once, you should definitely try out Terminator.

    iTerm2 Color Schemes

    iTerm2 Color Schemes

    Over 425 terminal color schemes/themes for iTerm/iTerm2

    This project curates a large collection of terminal color schemes and makes them available in formats for many terminal emulators, not just iTerm2. You’ll find well-known palettes like Solarized, Dracula, Nord, and hundreds more, each with previews that showcase how code, prompts, and text look under the theme. The repository includes export files for multiple terminals—such as iTerm2, Apple Terminal, Alacritty, Kitty, Windows Terminal, and others—so you can apply the same aesthetic consistently across machines. There are helper tools and conversion scripts to generate or translate schemes, plus instructions for importing them on each supported terminal. Because it’s community-driven, new schemes and updates are added regularly, and issues often include tweaks to improve readability or contrast for different use cases.

    ddgr

    ddgr

    DuckDuckGo from the terminal

    ddgr is a command-line search tool that lets users perform DuckDuckGo web searches directly from their terminal, providing a privacy-focused alternative to browser-based searches without tracking or personalized profiling. It fetches search results via DuckDuckGo’s API or HTML output and presents links, snippets, and metadata in a clean terminal format, making it useful for programmers, sysadmins, and privacy advocates who prefer keyboard-driven workflows. The tool also supports options like opening a selected result in a web browser, piping results into other tools, and restricting searches to specific formats such as text-only or JSON for further processing. Because it avoids third-party tracking and ads built into many browser search experiences, ddgr appeals to users seeking greater control over data and a faster, distraction-free search flow.

    Deep Daze

    Deep Daze

    Simple command line tool for text to image generation

    Simple command-line tool for text to image generation using OpenAI's CLIP and Siren (Implicit neural representation network). In true deep learning fashion, more layers will yield better results. Default is at 16, but can be increased to 32 depending on your resources. Technique first devised and shared by Mario Klingemann, it allows you to prime the generator network with a starting image, before being steered towards the text. Simply specify the path to the image you wish to use, and optionally the number of initial training steps. We can also feed in an image as an optimization goal, instead of only priming the generator network. Deepdaze will then render its own interpretation of that image. The regular mode for texts only allows 77 tokens. If you want to visualize a full story/paragraph/song/poem, set create_story to True.
