Example

Here is a minimal example:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

from PyQt5.QtGui import QApplication
from pyqterm import TerminalWidget


if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)

    win = TerminalWidget()
    win.resize(800, 600)
    win.show()

    app.exec_()

Look at pyqterm-app.py for a more complete example with a tabbed terminal application.

The constructor has the following signature:

• def __init__(self, parent=None, command=”/bin/bash”, font_name=”Monospace”, font_size=18)

The widget has the following methods:

• execute(command=”/bin/bash”)

• send(string)

• stop()

• pid() -> process id (int)

• zoom_in()

• zoom_out()

• text_selection() -> string

• update_screen()

• is_alive() -> bool

• row_count() -> int

• column_count() -> int

• text() -> string

TerminalWidget inherits directly from QWidget, so it has show, hide, setFont, etc.

The widget emits the following signals:

• session_closed()

• return_pressed()
