    Terminator Terminal Won't Launch

    When trying to open Terminator I get a spinning wheel and then the app closes. The regular Kali terminal works fine, though I prefer Terminator for obvious reasons. Running a hybrid Mac with dual boot. Uname -a returns Linux kali 4.14.0-kali3-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 4.14.17-1kali1 (2018-02-16) i686 GNU/Linux.

    running Terminator from default terminal returns the following...

    Code:
    root@kali:~# terminator
    ConfigBase::load: Unable to open /root/.config/terminator/config ([Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/root/.config/terminator/config')
    Traceback (most recent call last):

    Can someone who has the Terminator terminal navigate to /root/.config/terminator

    ... and using
    Code:
    head -5000 config
    give me the code output so I may recreate the file?
