Useful and Elegant Terminal Emulators for Linux

A terminal emulator is a program that emulates a video terminal within some other display architecture. Though typically synonymous with a shell or text terminal, the term terminal covers all remote terminals, including graphical interfaces.
That is how Wikipedia  define what a terminal emulator is.
It allows the user access to a text terminal and all its applications such as command-line interfaces (CLI) and text user interface (TUI) applications. On Unix-like operating systems, it is common to have one or more terminal windows connected to the local machine.
So people use different types of Terminal Emulators according to their performances and preference of users.
Lets see some of different terminal emulators that can be used in Linux operating systems.

1. Tilda
   Tilda is a GTK+ Terminal emulator and it is based on the VTE terminal emulator widget underlying GNOME terminal. They say that its design was inspired from consoles which was in computer games like Quake. Running Tilda can be faster than launching a new terminal with a keyboard shortcut because the program is already loaded into memory. So it can be useful to people who frequently find themselves opening and closing terminals.
   It has a nice interface with highly customization options and excellent built in color schemes.
   
   It is a free software licensed under the terms of the GNU general public license.
