Public bug reported: According to the help (output of "gnome-terminal --help-terminal"), if i use the "--tab" option a new tab will be opened in the last window opened from the default profile.
But, again, if i try to use the command " gnome-terminal --tab ", a new window will be opened, and it will not open it in the newest window with the default profile ( the wrong behavious happens if the latest opened window is the same on which the command is run and it also happens if it isn't ). I don't know if it help, but a similar bug with mate-terminal (which has similar options) has been reported and, according to the tracking, resolved and came up again and resolved again (???) https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-terminal/issues/45 https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-terminal/issues/96 Thank you very much.
