Return Code (RC) of previous run commands is shown at the bottom status bar
Settings to customise colours, font and cursor shape
Ctrl-C to kill current running process
Ctrl-F to search; supports case sensitivity and regex searches
UP and DOWN arrow keys to cycle between next and previous commands in history
Unix-like tab completion on files and directories
Handles multiline commands using caret character ^ or \

Requirements
The Tkinter GUI library is built into Python, so no 3rd party library is required.
Requires at least Python version 3.x and above.
Installation
Get it from Github or PIP package manager
# From github
git clone https://github.com/dhanoosu/TkTerm.git

# From package manager
pip install tkterm

Standalone usage
Navigate to downloaded folder and run script with
cd TkTerm

# Either of these will work
python tkterm
python tkterm/tkterm.py

If package was installed via pip
python -m tkterm

Integration with other Tkinter application
The Terminal is implemented as a Frame widget and can easily be integrated to other Tkinter application by
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import *
from tkterm import Terminal

root = tk.Tk()

terminal = Terminal(root)
terminal.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=True)

root.mainloop()


If downloaded via github append to system path before import
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, "./TkTerm")
from tkterm import Terminal


Customisation options
Customise Terminal interface by Right-click > Settings...



Note:
Clicking Save config saves setting configuration to a file.
Tkterm will automatically load this file the next time it starts up.
Multiline command
Long lines of command can be broken up using a caret. A caret at the line end appends the next line command with the current command.
In Windows the caret is ^, and UNIX is \.
For multiline command to be considered there must be no trailing space after the caret, for example:

$> ping ^ is considered
$> ping ^ is not considered

$>> echo I ^
> have apple ^
> and banana
I have apple and banana
