That likely would not work. It would try something like:

x-terminal-emulator -e 'top ; xeyes'

When I try that exact command, the terminal opens and instantly closes.
When I just run the top, I get:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]% top \; xeyes
        top: unknown argument ';'
usage:  top -hv | -bcisSH -d delay -n iterations [-u user | -U user] -p pid 
[,pid ...]

You would need to write a script similar to:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]% cat /tmp/xeye_top; echo ---EOF---
#!/bin/sh
x-terminal-emulator -e top &
xeyes &
---EOF---

Assign the name of that script to the launcher. It should work.
