About MacTerm
Powerful replacement for macOS Terminal, supporting 24-bit color, standard graphics protocols and iTerm2 image sequences and color schemes. MacTerm is one of the few emulators in the world that allow terminal-based programs to set up to 8 bits per RGB component (for a total of 24 bits), allowing for a large number and large spectrum of colors on the screen. The terminal is capable of preserving incoming text perfectly: whether you copy it to the Clipboard, capture it to a file, print it, or drag and drop, any special characters will be present. You can also use the floating command line window to input any kind of character. (In 4.1.0, there are limits on which Unicode characters can actually be displayed by the terminal; these limitations are being removed in 5.0.) Finally, Unicode is supported for file names, preference collection names, and macros.

When you're connected to multiple servers, the unique background colors and window titles shown in profiles help you easily identify the correct terminal window. Use the built-in profiles in Terminal, or create your own custom profiles. Add markup and bookmarks as you work, then use them to quickly navigate through the vast output in the terminal window. Use the inspector to view and manage active processes, and change window titles and background colors. Use profiles to customize the colors, font, cursor style, background, and other elements of Terminal windows. A profile is a collection of style and behavior settings for a terminal window. Terminal comes with a set of predefined profiles, but it also allows you to create your own custom profiles. Change settings for terminal type (terminfo), input, prompt behavior, and international encodings. Change settings for function keys, the option key, and the alternate display.

GNOME Terminal
Terminal is a terminal emulator application for accessing a UNIX shell environment which can be used to run programs available on your system. Terminal supports escape sequences that control cursor position and colors. A terminal is a text input point in a computer that is also called the Command Line Interface (CLI). IBM 3270, VT100 and many others are hardware terminals that are no longer produced as physical devices. To emulate these terminals, there are terminal emulators. Any input entered in the Terminal to be executed is referred to as a command. You can run both command line and graphical user interface (GUI) programs from the terminal. If you have a program that ends abruptly without any warning or error, you may want to run it in Terminal. This will allow the program to output any error or debugging messages to the Terminal window. This information can be helpful when filing a bug report.
