<p>$XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP... Not sure. Probably it's from
pam_systemd. <br>
It would be more reliable to take lowercase of
$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP then.<br>

xdg-termial is a collection of
workarouds to tie different DE's
approaches together. Just like
xdg-open.<br>
IMHO, there should be a movement
towards proper standards.<br>
<br>
@Simon, with your remarks taken into
accout, here is an update:<br>
Using desktop entries to define
terminals gives advantages to
downstream tools (selector GUIs, etc.)
by providing proper descriptions,
l10n.<br>
Places to look could be extended
beyond /usr, into a proper
${XDG_DATA_[HOME|DIRS]} hierarchy, so
it would look like this:<br>
<br>
Terminal descriptios:<br>
~/.local/share/xdg-terminals
($XDG_DATA_HOME)<br>
{/usr/local/share,/usr/share}/<wbr>xdg-terminals
($XDG_DATA_DIRS)<br>
<br>
Configs:<br>
~/.config/$desktop-xdg-termina<wbr>ls.list
($XDG_CONFIG_HOME)<br>
~/.config/xdg-terminals.list<br>
/etc/xdg/$desktop-xdg-terminal<wbr>s.list
($XDG_CONFIG_DIRS)<br>
/etc/xdg/xdg-terminals.list<br>
<br>
If this logic would be embeded into
xdg-terminal, that would be a great
start.<br>

would<br>
be to integrate with that existing

for example to check for the
existence of a config file in 1
maybe<br>
several dirs (I guess a sysadmin may
want to configure a default<br>
terminal for all his users).<br>
<br>
That config file would contain the
path to the terminal followed by the<br>
exec command. This approach is less
secure as someone could modify the<br>
config file without you realising (I
guess this could happen anyway).<br>
<br>
I don't like the idea of describing
exec arguments only somewhere in<br>
/usr, it would mean that if I was
working on a machine that I didn't<br>
have root access to and I wanted to
use some less popular or new<br>
terminal that hadn't been added to
the list yet I wouldn't be able to.
I<br>
also wouldn't be able to use a
terminal that I had built from
source in<br>
my home dir and added to my path.<br>
<br>
I also think in the days of the X11
/ wayland transition prefixing the<br>
config files with xdg- rather then
x- is a better approach, I may be on<br>
my own with that though.<br>
