Comment (by bonefish):
Would be nice indeed. Konsole has that feature, too and I find that it is
mostly what one wants when opening a new tab. The Terminal side should be
easy enough to implement. The only problem is that we don't have a way to
get the current working directory of another team yet. Adding a respective
syscall wouldn't be hard either, but before we start adding individual
syscalls for stuff like this, we should consider a more generic API for
getting information about a team. A procfs would be an option, but that
comes with the overhead of a file system and also requires parsing the
information read. Maybe something like:
{{{
status_t get_extended_team_info(team_id teamID, uint32 flags, BMessage&
info)
}}}
