Thanks Doug, [cross-posted to tm-dev],
To further strengthen the Terminal, I would be interested moving the Terminal from the TM project into the CDT project. I think it’s a logical move since Terminal builds on the PTY support
in cdt.native as well as the new Serial support. I also suppose many/most users of Terminal are also using the CDT.
TM and CDT committers, what do you think about this idea, should we work towards a move review for Terminal soon after Oxygen?

Subject: Re: [cdt-dev] 9.3 Oxygen M7 today
Hey gang, one notable change is coming for the C/C++ IDE package. I am adding the Terminal to it. I’ve been using it a lot for serial connections and am updating the upstream serial to use CDT’s Native one (the RXTX one will still be there
if you need). I’ll be leveraging that for Arduino. The Local terminal is also very handy, especially with the Show in Local Terminal menu on Folders in the Project Explorer.
In the end, this means I’m giving up on my strategy of using the Console View for terminals. It never really ended up being a good user experience. We can work on the TM Terminal going forward as we need.
Thanks for all your great work getting ready. I’ll spend the day cleaning up any loose ends on my part and will take the M7 snapshot before I go to bed.
