The most important commands (for me):
* create a new vertical shell
shift + alt + PLUS // +
* create a new horizontal shell
shift + alt + MINUS // -
* change the focus shell
alt + arrow key
* resize the shell (when there is more than one in the current tab)
shift + alt + arrow key
* close current shell
ctrl + shift + w

Now you can - for example - create a tab where you have a large horizontal area at the top where you show the log you are interested in (syslog, messages, whatever) and below you have two vertical tabs where you can on the left side edit files and on the right side execute system commands.

Or whatever you want.

Like ... only horizontal shells where each one shows a different log file on your 2nd monitor?
