So I can do terminal stuffs in Emacs, instead of having to open another terminal window
Vterm: none that I can see
Eat: it’s awesome, very good and fast and mouse input works out of the box
That does not justify 5000 lines of code
My weakest computer can fit twenty million lines of codes on it.
I’d say if anything, the usefulness of eat would justify a lot more. Thankfully doing one thing well lends itself to brevity, and storage is cheap
For me: To run commands such as brew.
I get your point. I messed with eshell for a while, then used vterm. In the end I just hard wired a swaywm key to a scratch terminal wihch toggles an alacritty instance. I can copy and paste in it fine : in short I find it easier to do “terminal shell things” in a “real terminal” but I can see why others prefer to stay inside emacs. Occasioanlly I’ll use a terminal inside emacs via projectile as its quick to open a terminal at your current project location.
