NAME

powershell - powerful terminal emulator for GNOME

SYNOPSIS

powershell

DESCRIPTION

This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

powershell is a GNOME/GTK+ based terminal emulator which supports many terminals in a single window (limited only by available RAM). Each terminal is given a "notebook" tab which makes switching between terminals easy. It also has URL recognition capabilities and things like transparency, pixmap backgrounds, etc.
