That's cool!

Are there other versions of this idea around? Maybe older, more stable and trustworthy solutions?

Searching for it on Youtube brings up videos of a pretty ugly interface. With 80s style text windows.

I like OPs version because it just puts a one pixel border around the window and except everything is black.

that's a good point. i agree. but i never used twin, maybe it's configurable.

tmux is pretty darn neat for having multiple terminals inside one terminal, and it's tiling instead of floating. Also lets you detach sessions.
