Terminal for custom links to files and directories.

I am looking for terminal for i3 window manager. At this point I am keen to choose urxvt or st, but I do not say 'no' to others. However, there are 2 features, that would be super useful for me, that no one writes about or shows on youtube videos. Namely,

1. I would like to be able to quickly navigate to the paths that are displayed in the terminal. Something similar to opening the urls. I would like to have an option to cd to this path in the current terminal or open the new one. This would probably save me minutes per day as I often use programs that log something like: 'for more details check directory /path/to/dir'. If cd happens in the same terminal, it would be also user super useful to have an shortcut to come back to the previous working directory.
2. The second functionality is very similar, but it concerns files. I would like to be able to open them easily in vim in the current terminal or in the new terminal.

Hibernate Progress Bar

I remember that while I was using **OpenSUSE**., the **hibernate** feature has a console progress bar...
Many years passed. Now using **Arch** linux but... just see a black screen and not have informed anything about...


Why linux kernel has not such a feature by default, I don't know.


What is your distro? Do you have any progress bar while hibernating or just watch black screen?
Thanks

Fixing the font problem on Linux

Hi all,

I recently partitioned my laptop and installed Debian (after a few other distros) , it works really well for me on my XPS 9550 but I got hit with the terrible font problem in Linux. Text and the terminal look great but apps look blurry and awful.

Well, I came across this article and solution. After following the steps of installing the Noto font everything looks great on my Debian 10.

[https://pandasauce.org/post/linux-fonts/](https://pandasauce.org/post/linux-fonts/)

​

sudo apt install fonts-noto

## Tweak Tool

​

* Hinting: Slight
, which translates to “autohint”. I suggest it because it exhibits the advance widths rounding issue in kerning pairs the least. Personally, I use full hinting with v38.
* Anti-aliasing: Subpixel
* Window Titles: Noto Sans UI Regular 11
or Noto Sans Display Regular 11
(renamed in newer versions)
* Interface: Noto Sans UI Regular 10
or Noto Sans Display Regular 10
(renamed in newer versions)
* Documents: Noto Serif Regular 11
* Monospace: Noto Mono Regular 13

## Application Settings

I find that different applications render best with certain font sizes set. Most likely, this is because it forces the least broken glyph form in absence of subpixel positioning which would give me a non-broken glyph.

Here they are:

​

* Terminator: Ubuntu Mono 13.5
* Sublime Text: Ubuntu Mono 13.4
, padding-top 4
, padding-bottom 4
* IntelliJ: Ubuntu Mono 18
, line height 1.4
* Chrome, Spotify, Slack, Electron apps: add --disable-font-subpixel-positioning
to the shortcut. I used to [manually patch every binary release of Chrome](https://gist.github.com/pandasauce/398c080f9054f05bee6e1c465416b53b) to enable subpixel positioning, but thanks to [this bug in Chromium](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=824153#c39) that turned out to be not necessary.

​

Long live Noto :)
