I wonder if you often adjust your terminal to make it looks more beautiful?
I am a person who likes freshness and gets bored easily, so every once in a while, I feel dissatisfied with the terminal I usually use, and want to change the text color, the angle of the corners…
After recently changing the background of the terminal to transparency, I accidentally found that the terminal looks good with my wallpaper! So I started trying to find how to directly add a background to the terminal.
After searching on the Internet, I found many people recommend xfce terminal, so I record the article about how to do it.
Use XFCE terminal and change background
Step 1: Download xfce Terminal
Debian/Ubuntu
sudo apt install -y xfce4-terminal
Fedora
su -c "yum groupinstall xfce"
Step 2: Change the Background
Edit > Preferences… > Appearance and you can open the setting menu:
Select the up-arrow icon and you can choose a localimage. The Style is the padding mode of image, you can try it for free.
The following is some images I used:
