Hi,
I've got a program running in console mode.
When I launch it from the desktop, this program is correctly launched but I don't get his output. I have to launch it directly from the terminal using ./myProgram;
Is there a way to automatically launch something to the terminal ?

Sorry for my English, I hope you understood what I mean, if not, tell me it, I'll try to explain in a better way.

If I understand correctly, you want to create a desktop shortcut that will launch your program running in a terminal ?

Right click the dektop and select Create Launcher, then from the Type dropdown box, select Application in Terminal.

Give the launcher a name, fill in the command to launch, and any comment you want.

Does that do it ?
