The xterm executable is used when you have a flow graph with the Generate Options set to "No GUI" and Run Options set to "Prompt for Exit". In that scenario, GNU Radio Companion wants to open a terminal for the prompt for exit to exist in. If you don't have anything configured, GNU Radio

Hi Volker and Michael, Thank you for that information. On my Raspbian Buster system I found the following: - there is a /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator, but no 'xterm' anywhere I could find; - there is a /usr/local/etc/gnuradio/conf.d/grc.conf file, but the xterm_executable is blank; - env

Michael, Thank you for that. Apparently it did find a default "xterm". So I have two suggestions related to this: 1) Don't show the error message unless it can't find a default. 2) Continue to show the error message until it has an xterm to use. Currently it shows the error message only once.
