<title>Use tabs</title>
<p>The tab bar is shown at the top a <app>Terminal</app> window that has
multiple tabs open (it looks like a row of buttons). Click on a tab to switch
to it. You can open multiple tabs to manage your work in <app>Terminal</app>.
This will allow you to multi-task with activities such as running programs,
browsing directories and editing text files in a single <app>Terminal</app>
window.</p>
<section id="add-tab">
<title>Open a new tab</title>
<p>To open a new tab inside your current <app>Terminal</app> window:</p>

</item>
</steps>
</section>
<!-- TODO: doesn't work, see bug 720693
<section id="rename-tab">
<title>Rename a tab</title>
<p>Each tab has an automatically assigned title. You can rename the tabs
individually:</p>
<steps>
<item>
<p>Select <guiseq><gui style="menu">Terminal</gui>
<gui style="menuitem">Set Title…</gui></guiseq>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Enter the desired <gui>Title</gui> that you wish to use for the tab.
This will overwrite any titles that would be set by terminal commands.
</p>
<note>
<p>It is not possible to set back the automatically set title once it
has been set for a tab. To see the title, you need to allow terminal
command titles to be shown in the <gui style="menuitem">Profile
Preferences</gui>.</p>
</note>
</item>
<item>
<p>Click <gui style="button">OK</gui>.</p>
</item>
