Tabbed terminals for Windows redux 2

For the past few months I’ve been running Gnome-Terminal under Cygwin as my tabbed term of choice but I’ve always disliked having to run X on Windows just to run a terminal emulator.

Now, thanks to an anonymous comment pointing to me VeraTerm on my previous post, I’ve discovered the open-source successor to VeraTerm called Poderosa. Poderosa is a native Windows tabbed terminal under the Apache license that directly supports Cygwin for running local shells as well as having built in SSH support. It’s definitely worth checking out if you’ve grown tired of having to open a new window for each shell.
