NAME

6       rofi-sensible-terminal - launches $TERMINAL with fallbacks

SYNOPSIS

9       rofi-sensible-terminal [arguments]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       rofi-sensible-terminal is invoked in the rofi default config to start a
13       terminal. This wrapper script is necessary since there is no
14       distribution-independent terminal launcher (but for example Debian has
15       x-terminal-emulator). Distribution packagers are responsible for
16       shipping this script in a way which is appropriate for the
17       distribution.
18
19       It tries to start one of the following (in that order):
20
21       ·   $TERMINAL (this is a non-standard variable)
22
23       ·   x-terminal-emulator
24
25       ·   termite
26
27       ·   urxvt
28
29       ·   rxvt
30
31       ·   terminator
32
33       ·   Eterm
34
35       ·   aterm
36
37       ·   xterm
38
39       ·   gnome-terminal
40
41       ·   roxterm
42
43       ·   xfce4-terminal
44
45       Please don’t complain about the order: If the user has any preference,
46       she will have $TERMINAL set or modified her rofi configuration file.
