The main window of “Terminus” is shown in the image above. After tweaking and adjusting your preferred settings, click on the “Close and never show again” button, and you will be greeted with a new window where you can open a terminal tab.

As discussed above, it can be personalized easily. To customize it open “Settings”.

There is a whole bunch of settings. In the “Application” option themes can be changed; tabs location, opacity, and window frame can also be adjusted.

In the “Hotkeys” option as the name suggests, you can add and configure the hotkeys. In the plugins option, existing plugins can be uninstalled and new plugins can be downloaded and enabled, as shown in the following image.

In the “Appearance” tab, font and terminal background can be personalized.
