Re: [sshmenu] Can't install sshmenu

[Andrew D. <ade...@gm...>]

Is that applets like in screenlets? Those things are always so buggy. I 
hate Unity and Gnome3's not really to my liking though I should play 
with it more. I like compiz and all the whiz bangy flying windows and 
transparencies... Never tried XFCE.

Do you know of anything else that will allow you to manage many 
terminals in an organized fashion? As a sysadmin of sorts with often 
lots of machine to manage I like having them on a menu so I can arrange 
and categorize them so I can find machines quickly.

I'm not much of a Ruby guy but I grew up in a compiler language lab so 
languages are sorta my thing. I haven't done any panel extensions but I 
have done some Javascript. If you could point me to some examples 
perhaps I could port this. Would you suggest I go to Gnome3 and target that?

Oh and another thing, if you might happen to know - do you know of any 
way to change gnome-terminal such that merely selecting text makes it so 
that you can paste it into another application? I mean I don't like 
having to right click and select copy nor do I like to do Ctrl-Shift-C 
all the time. I want it to be just put in the cutbuffer as soon as text 
selection stops.

Thanks.
