Depends on the terminal you use. Xfce Terminal for instance can be run
with the --hide-borders option. If your terminal doesn't have an option
like this you can use devilspie(1). Combine this with alltray(2) and
you'll have a terminal on your desktop. I use alltray to put Xfce
Terminal on my Xfce desktop like so:
/usr/bin/alltray -x --sticky --geometry 500x955-0+90 --show --skip-
taskbar --no-alltray "xfce4-terminal --working-directory=$HOME --hide-
menubar --hide-borders --hide-toolbars"
