It is a new problem with it. According to xterm man page, xterm -e [command] [command options] sould works. In practice, it work only with gnome-terminal:
gnome-terminal -e mc /home/dom With terminator -e mc /home/dom it fail. I must use quoting: terminator -e "mc /home/dom" which can be complicated if some command option already use quoting. This is the same issue with xfce4-terminal and the Debien x-terminal- emulator, that on both gentoo and Debian sid. What do we do? Do you re-open that bug or I must fill a new one? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366644 Title: terminator does not honor x-terminal-emulator -e option To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-terminal/+bug/366644/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
