Ever wanted your Mac to feel like a genuine bare-bones Linux box? Didn't think so.

But with Exterminal you can. It's a Mac OS X terminal client application similar to the one supplied by Apple.

However, it runs entirely full screen, giving you that bare-bones feel. It also supports multiple sessions.

There are no Preferences or modifiable settings -- this is just a quick hack. The terminal emulation code is based on CocoaTech's CocoaTechTerminal class, which in turn is based on the open-source iTerm client. The code to Exterminal is also open-source under the Free Software Foundation's GNU General Public License.
