The tabbing feature of terminal is very nice, but to be able to drag a tab from a window to another terminal window, we need to have them as tabs. There should be a way to drag a terminal 'window' (with a single tab, unshown) to an existing terminal window with several tabs, so that the terminal window is merged into the tabs for the other window.
Comment 1 Egmont Koblinger 2015-03-01 23:40:58 CET
An obvious workaround, as you've probably figured out, is to open an intermittent terminal tab next to the one you'd like to drag :)
Comment 2 Landry Breuil editbugs 2015-03-02 09:10:16 CET
Of course but that's a bit "meh" :)
Comment 3 Igor editbugs 2016-07-05 20:05:27 CEST
I'm not sure about this... it would mean that one would be unable to drag a terminal window above other window.
Comment 4 Igor editbugs 2016-09-23 17:20:31 CEST
What about introducing a "merge mode", as suggested by weyfonk?
When in this mode, a window could be merged into another one.
