THIS PROJECT IS DEAD, ITERM2 NOW RENDERS TEXT SAME WAY AS TERMINAL.APP

Simple SIMBL plugin that removes the Titlebar (and Toolbar) from Terminal.app.

Why and how

I've always envied Linux for the great window managers that the community produces. Some nice tools to mimic that behaviour are finally surfacing on OS X like Hammerspoon and Kwm. Many setups you see around use iTerm without the title bar, and since I thought it was pretty cool I decided to add the same option in Terminal.app The basic change is removing the NSTitledWindowMask during the window creation, the other hooked functions are needed to keep all Terminal features working. Now it also supports padding and active tab color personalization! The background color of the padding area is taken from the current tab background color, to have the best integration possible.
