Terminal

This web page is where we are coordinating the work to build a Terminal application for the Ubuntu Phone that could also extend to other form factors too with the responsive design features built into the Ubuntu SDK

User Stories

Note: please don't add user stories here. We are defining these as a limited set to keep the scope more limited to get out a first version.

• Must Have: I want to open a terminal window and enter a command supported by BusyBox

• Could Have: I want to zoom in to see letters better / I want to increase the font size

Functional Requirements

Note: likewise, please don't add functional requirements here. We are defining these as a limited set to keep the scope more limited to get out a first version.

• Emulate terminal in an app window

• Integrate with BusyBox

• Support entry of special commands that are not represented by the keyboard (e.g. ctrl+<insert some letter>)

• Could Have: Zoom or increase font size
• Could Have: Create a special layout for the onscreen keyboard (e.g. emoticons, keyboard commands)
