Yakuake is based on the KDE Konsole technology, but Ubuntu users can use the almost identical looking Guake terminal. I really like this because not only does it look good, but it can be key mapped to a key on your keyboard for quick access. Yakuake is a drop down/sliding terminal emulator in the style of the Quake chat window. I personally rock with Kubuntu, but the majority of these tweaks can be applied to any Unix based OS. An episode proclaiming the wonders of guake, a drop-down terminal emulator in the tradition of the terminal in Quake.I also mention Yakuake if you're a big. From downloading and installing software, to installing and using custom scripts (such as Youtube-downloaders, music players, social networking scripts, etc) to even running security tools… All can be given that little bit of eye candy to and assist in making your Desktop look cool. If you have a way of getting that other window to slide in from the top. But this just passes the buck: you still need to get that window to slide in from the top. to embed the alacritty window in another window. If your a Unix user, you’ll know that allot of the usage of your Operating System will be through the use of the terminal. How can I configure it so the alacritty terminal drops down/up from the top of the screen with a hotkey, like tilda or guake.
