Terminal on panes

[dustinblackman]

What would be awesome if we could position terminals like we would panes, add for more flexibility when working on larger screens.

Just want to clarify the idea you are proposing here. Are you referring to the pane splitting that allows you to have two items side-by-side?

[dustinblackman]

Yep you got it!

Atom lets you layout panes however you want via View -> Panes -> Split Up | Down | Left | Right

So the idea is for a user to create a layout as desired, then focus a pane, create a new Terminal instance and have the Terminal take the place of the focused pane (rather than always occupying the bottom of the screen).

+1 Especially since a lot of my useful terminal stdout tends to be "vertically orientated" like tests outputs, console.log'ing of heavily nested objects, etc.

Ideally, it would work like this demo of atom-terminal-tab.

+1 I would really really like this.
