I used to miss such a thing too but I saw Tanel Poder using Terminator once: https://github.com/software-jessies-org/jessies/wiki/Terminator I have been using it on Linux mostly. I had some issues with Terminator handling single-byte Cyrillic encodings in the beginning, but then switched to NLS_LANG=.AL32UTF8 and it was a smooth experience with the tool. Not so smooth with Oracle products, like: Output widths change after upgrade, or change of character set (Doc ID 330717.1), (wrote a script to produce "column <column_name> format <format>" for a table given as input since I was tired of scrolling horizontally having done something like select * from v$session :)).

Regards,
Mikhail Velikikh.
