gnome-terminal: how to eliminate the scrollbar programatically?

Question

I'm spawning some processes running in their own gnome-terminal and don't want to show the scrollbar. Is there something like `xterm +sb` to turn the scrollbar off for that particular window?

Accepted Answer

Start gnome-terminal, select Edit->Profiles in the menu. Create a new profile and call it 'NoScrollbar'. In the profile preferences, go to the Scrolling tab, then set the scrollbar to 'Disabled'. To start a new terminal with the new profile, run the following command:

```
$ gnome-terminal --window-with-profile=NoScrollbar
```
