I use desktop launchers for a number of .php commands that execute
scripts. I run them in the terminal mode. I need to see the output and
close the terminal manually. How is this done? Currently the script
executs then the terminal screen closes automatically. I figure there is
some terminal launch command that should be added to the string that
starts the .php script, but have been unable to locate it. Any tips?
This is an example;
myaccountname@mysystemname:php
/home/myaccountname/mediawiki-1.17.0/maintenance/cleanupCaps.php
A quick trick is using the hold option for xterm, so in the end,
your .desktop file launcher contains something like:
***
Exec=xterm -hold -e command
***
Another tip I've seen by searching at Google is using a predefined gnome-
terminal profile that keeps the window open and then you call it from
the desktop launcher.
