This way, you can have several different things running, all of them easy to pull up with keyboard shortcuts.
You can switch between panes using Command+Option and the arrow keys. If a single Terminal isn’t enough, you can split the screen vertically with Command+D (or horizontally with Command+Shift+D). You could just as easily forgo the transparency and have a black background. Next head to Window and set the “Style” dropdown to Fullscreen.Īlso feel free to adjust the Transparency and Blur settings until everything looks just right. I went with 18pt Monaco, but use whatever font combination you like.
HOW TO WORK ON SPLIT SCREEN IN MAC TERMINAL FULL
Next head to the “Text” section in the right panel. If you want the full screen Terminal experience I recommend changing the font to something bigger, because otherwise everything is buried in a sea of black space. Head to the Profiles section in the Preferences window and make sure the “Hotkey Window” profile is selected. If you want the full screen large Terminal seen in my screenshots above, however, you’ve got a bit more work to do. If you like the way this looks and works, congrats: you can stop here. Use the keyboard shortcut you just signed and you’ll see the default hotkey window, which takes up half the screen. You can also set this window to open when you click the iTerm dock icon, but that’s up to you. I prefer the keyboard shortcut Option+Space, because it’s similar to Spotlight without overlapping, but you can use anything you want. Step Two: Enable The Hotkey WindowĬlick “iTerm2” in the menu bar, choose the “Preferences” option, and then head to the “Keys” section. At the bottom-left you’ll see a button called “Create a Dedicated Hotkey Window.” Tap this and a menu appears.Ĭonfigure this to your liking. There’s a lot of hidden functionality in the settings, however, which we’ll get to now.
