  • A terminal emulator (such as xterm, tmux, or emacs) is responsible for displaying a pseudoterminal in a different context (such as an x server, another terminal, or an emacs buffer respectively). Terminals are divided into three types: virtual terminals (on boot or as presented by [C-]A-F<N>), ‘true’ terminals (exposed on serial ports), and pseudoterminals (controlled by other programs). Essentially, you have a virtual terminal running X running Xterm which controls a pseudoterminal with tmux attached controlling another pseudoterminal.

    Login shells are a special flag set when launching shells, sometimes. They typically read different settings (e.g. Bash reads ~/.bash_profile instead of ~/.bashrc). Most shells will launch as a login shell if their command name (argv[0]) begins with a hyphen; Bash also allows explicit bash -l to run a login shell.

    overall we need something to text

    pretty much Matrix’s entire point

    (plus send files)

    also implemented in pretty much every server and client; I think even Element can send files

    call

    look into e.g. #matrixrtc:continuwuity.org — sable requires a setting to show the call button in non-DM rooms

    video/screen share

    unfortunately this is the only thing I’m not confident is supported

    bonus for emojis, stickers

    should be available with any im.ponies-compatible client such as sable
