Description
We need the CLI to be available within the GUI instead of having to connect through a remote port, as it is more efficient than using mouse to setup things.
It would be best to have a view that is attachable to other views within the same window. Maybe we could integrate it directly within our window class.
Regarding the editing capabilities, we need an auto complete mechanism, basic syntax highlighting as well as a way to quickly look up the documentation of a command while typing. This documentation hint could be implemented by displaying a little helper window above the current typing.
- Terminal in Window
- Syntax highlighting
