xfce4 terminal resize

ask2 · 2006-10-11 14:05:03

I would like to be able to resize my terminal on all 4 corners and all 4 sides. My current setup I can for example not resize by grabbing the upper side and drag the mouse upwards.
Also the area that area to "hit" when trying to grab and resize seems to be small and hard to get hold of.
Is it possible in xfce4 and with some terminal to
1: Have all sides and corner grabbable to resize the window?
2: Make the area to point in when resizing bigger or easier to get hold of?

I use HPUX and dtterm at work. And the ease of use and speed is just awesome compared to my home setup (ok ok more expensive )

Is there a dtterm terminal for xfce/linux?

Try changing the window decorations. This is usually what determines the behaviour that you want to change. KDE has a decoration that has the look of the Sun's one. Maybe it's available under xfce.

Xfce's window manager doesn't allow resizing at the top of windows (every other corner and side works). The developer's rationale was that you sometimes end up resizing windows when you want to move them, which is annoying (apparently mac osx works the same way). I prefer to alt-rightclick myself for resizing windows.
