Hello,
I have a working terminal prototype integrating emacs and libvterm at
https://github.com/akermu/emacs-libvterm. As for now every terminal
starts a thread, which throws a signal, when there's something to read
on the master file descriptor. This is quite inefficient. I think
integrating libvterm into emacs-core could solve many problems the
current implementation has. Is there interest for a patch?
Greetings
Lukas

Sounds like a good idea to me.

It would help if here or in the Introduction on the Github page you
explained:
* what problem is solved for the user (yes, embeds a vterm, but why)?
* how it compares to Eshell, ansi-term, emamux, etc.
* what core code you propose to add (at least a rough plan)
Thanks
Ted
