In turn, the <application>xterm</application> application emulates the DEC VT102 terminal and also supports the DEC VT220 escape sequences. An escape sequence is a series of characters that starts with the <keycap>Esc</keycap> character. <application>MATE Terminal</application> accepts all of the escape sequences that the VT102 and VT220 terminals use for functions such as to position the cursor and to clear the screen. - </para> - </listitem> - </varlistentry> - </variablelist> - </section> - - <!--=========== Getting Started ============================== --> - - <section xml:id="mate-terminal-get-started"><info><title>Getting Started</title></info> - <para> - The following sections describe how to start <application>MATE Terminal</application>. - </para> - - <section xml:id="mate-terminal-to-start"><info><title>Starting MATE Terminal</title></info> - <para> - You can start <application>MATE Terminal</application> in the following ways: - </para> - <variablelist> - <varlistentry> - <term><guimenu>Applications</guimenu> menu</term> - <listitem> - <para> - Choose <menuchoice><guimenu>Accessories</guimenu><guimenuitem>Terminal</guimenuitem></menuchoice>.</para> - </listitem> - </varlistentry> - <varlistentry> - <term>Command line</term> - <listitem> - <para> - Execute the following command: <command>mate-terminal</command> - </para> - <para> - You can use command line options to modify the way in which you run <application>MATE Terminal</application>.
