Request: terminal tabs

Post by robot »

Hi,
I use aria as a download manager.
For each download a new gnome-terminal is open, but this can make my desktop a mess!
The solution would be to open a tab in a gnome-terminal window that was already in use by flashgot/aria.
I already try to make it work using xdotool in the file DMS.js, but failed :(
It would detect the gnome-terminal window with the title Flashgot, open a tab but the command would be formatted incorrectly and fail to run!

Thanks

Kudos for trying that!

What did the incorrectly-formatted command look like? And can you show your changes to the DMS.js file?

Religion is not the opium of the masses. Daily life is the opium of the masses.

True religion, which dares to acknowledge death and challenge the way we live, is an attempt to wake up.
