Resize and position Gnome Terminator

I am a huge fan of Gnome Terminator. Terminator is great because it allows multiple terminal instances to be run in a single window.

Since I usually run two or three separate terminal windows, I ofter find myself resizing the main window – so other istances can fit nicely. This can get very boring and time consuming when you need to do something on the fly.

After snooping around the help files, I found this nice little parameter which resizes and positions the Terminator window on my screen.

/usr/bin/terminator --geometry=1024x500+128+200

This command line can be added to Gnome-do or Gnome panel shortcuts, and it works great.

The first two parameters (1024×500) set the width and height, and the other two(128+200) set the padding from left and top of the screen.
