gtlaunch launches Gnome Terminal with predefined tabs, runs a command in each tab and leaves you in the shell if the command quits, so you can jump straight to work. See the demo:

Prerequisites

  • Linux with Gnome

  • ZSH (support for other shells is in the works)

  • Python 2.7 or 3.3+

Installation

The recommended way to install Python packages which provide executable scripts is to use pipsi:

pipsi install gtlaunch

But pip also works:

pip install gtlaunch

Add the following to your .zshrc (see this message for an explanation):

if [[ $1 == eval ]]
then
    "$@"
    set --
fi

Configuration

By default, gtlaunch reads its configuration from a gtlaunch.json file located in user’s home directory. This can be overridden by passing the location of config file to --config option:

gtlaunch --config ../my-projects.json

Here’s an example configuration file (note: JSON does not allow comments, these are just for reference):

{
    // The configuration is an object where keys are project names
    // and values store per-project settings.
    "simple_project": {
        // The simplest setup is just a list of commands under the tabs key
        "tabs": ["vim", "python", "git status"]
    },
    "more_options": {
        // prefix specifies a command that will be run before each tab's
        // command executes
        "prefix": "workon test",
        // you can specify working directory; ~ will be expanded
        "cwd": "~/Development",
        "tabs": [
            // the extended format allows more options, see below
            {
                // command is required
                "command": "vim",
                // title is optional, defaults to command
                "title": "editor"
            },
            // you can mix&match both formats
            "python",
            "git status"
        ]
    }
}
