Thanks

To
further strengthen the Terminal, I would be
interested moving the Terminal from the TM project
into the CDT project. I think it’s a logical move
since Terminal builds on the PTY support in
cdt.native as well as the new Serial support. I also
suppose many/most users of Terminal are also using
the CDT.
TM and
CDT committers, what do you think about this idea,
should we work towards a move review for Terminal
soon after Oxygen?

Hey gang, one notable change is
coming for the C/C++ IDE package. I am adding the
Terminal to it. I’ve been using it a lot for serial
connections and am updating the upstream serial to
use CDT’s Native one (the RXTX one will still be
there if you need). I’ll be leveraging that for
Arduino. The Local terminal is also very handy,
especially with the Show in Local Terminal menu on
Folders in the Project Explorer.
In the end, this means I’m giving
up on my strategy of using the Console View for
terminals. It never really ended up being a good
user experience. We can work on the TM Terminal
going forward as we need.
Thanks
for all your great work getting ready. I’ll
spend the day cleaning up any loose ends on
my part and will take the M7 snapshot before
I go to bed.
