DESCRIPTION

14       rofi-sensible-terminal is invoked in the rofi default config to start a
15       terminal. This wrapper script is necessary since there is no  distribu‐
16       tion-independent terminal launcher (but for example Debian has x-termi‐
17       nal-emulator). Distribution packagers are responsible for shipping this
18       script in a way which is appropriate for the distribution.
