There is a long abandoned (but it still runs) project called eDEX-UI (https://github.com/GitSquared/edex-ui) which basically provides a working, useable terminal surrounded by all sorts of the crap visual appearance of hacker terminals in the movies. Pair that with a terminal editor and you've almost got a movie IDE!

It's kinda fun for a while although I'd be amazed if anyone actually used it as their main terminal emulator program. But you could.

outside of the keyboard, you could defiantly make this into a viable terminal interface. just make sure all of the "widgets" are relevant information and its not a bad idea.

There's dif themes that get rid of the keyboard and add and remove things, plus I'm p sure you can write your own
