How to open new tab in existing terminal instead of new terminal instance? [duplicate]

  • Force every new terminal to open in new tab

When pressing Ctrl-Alt-T in Ubuntu 18.04, a new terminal instance is opened. Is there a way to tweak the shortcut so if a terminal instance is already opened, then it just gets focused and a new tab is opened?



I'm tired of having 100 terminals opened because of my Ctrl-Alt-T habit.



I'm using hyper terminal, but something working with gnome-terminal would be a good start!

  • @vanadium I don't know when, but this has apparently been fixed. Entering gnome-terminal --tab in a terminal in 18.10 does in fact, open a new terminal for me.

  • @Charles Green Indeed it does when you run the command in gnome-terminal. However, it does not behave this way if you launch the command or a script containing the command with a hotkey.
