+ <desc>Do not send user input to the application running in the
+ terminal.</desc>
+
+ </info>
+
+ <title>Disable user input</title>
+
+ <p>You can prevent user input into the terminal from being passed to the
+ application which is currently running in the terminal. This will prevent any
+ keypresses, mouse clicks and mouse movement from affecting the application.
+ You will still be able to interact with the terminal itself using the
+ keyboard for scrolling and your mouse for selecting text. You will also be
+ able to copy selected text from the terminal, but you will not be able to
+ paste text into the terminal.</p>
+
+ <p>To use the read only mode:</p>
+
+ <steps>
+ <item>
+ <p>Right click in the <app>Terminal</app> window or press the menu button
+ in the top-right corner of the window.</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>Select <gui style="menuitem">Read-Only</gui> so that it is checked.</p>
+ </item>
+ </steps>
+
+ <p>You can disable the read only mode by unchecking
+ <gui style="menuitem">Read-Only</gui>.</p>
