The best nine free terminal simulators in Linux

A terminal simulator is a computer software that simulates "dumb" video terminals in other display architectures. The terminal window allows users to access the console and applications, such as the command line interface and text user interface software. Although today's graphic user interfaces are everywhere, there are still some tasks that are best executed using command lines.
