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> <br> 2017-05-25 09:16, Simon Lees wrote:<br> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> We already have the xdg-terminal binary which launches the terminal<br> based off the currently running desktop.
