.
I have a bash script that runs in a user terminal but I can't get it to run from an xfce launcher icon. I usually set up one without any trouble but this refuses to work as expected.

This is what I have, the commented line works but  the one before it is simpler, either way the result is the same, permissions are set to 777. All it produces from the launcher icon is a brief flash of the data and then a blank screen.

[bobg@box83 ~]$ cat SambaFiles
#!/bin/bash
# SambaFiles

xfce4-terminal -H -x  &

# /usr/bin/xfce4-terminal --maximize  -e 'cd /mnt/box48' &

ls -ctr /mnt/box48/2018*

In a terminal "[bobg@box83 ~]$ ./SambaFiles" produces the desired directory listing as does /home/bobg/SambaFiles, but neither works when configured in the launcher from the gui.

Any suggestions appreciated,

*Bob*
