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.

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