The 16th most popular system tool on Linux
… More Editxterm is a terminal emulator for the X Window System. It provides DEC VT102 and Tektronix 4014 compatible terminals for programs that cannot use the window system directly. This version implements ISO/ANSI colors and most of the control sequences used by DEC VT220 terminals.
This package provides four commands: xterm, which is the traditional terminal emulator; uxterm, which is a wrapper around xterm that is intelligent about locale settings (especially those which use the UTF-8 character encoding), but which requires the luit program from the x11-utils package; koi8rxterm, a wrapper similar to uxterm for locales that use the KOI8-R character set; and lxterm, a simple wrapper that chooses which of the previous commands to execute based on the user's locale settings.
A complete list of control sequences supported by the X terminal emulator is provided in /usr/share/doc/xterm.
The xterm program uses bitmap images provided by the xbitmaps package.
Those interested in using koi8rxterm will likely want to install the xfonts-cyrillic package as well.

This is my favorite terminal, i setup in my .bash_profile a few xterms , one with 'xterm -fg lightblue -bg blue -sb -ls' one with 'xterm -fg green -bg black -sb ' sb is scrollbar and fg is forground, bg background color, so I don't confuse the remote server with my local.
CLI is my love
The best terminal emulator I've ever used!
