Guten tag, mein freunds! (German, how multicultural! :P)
Looking for a starting point on how to tweak my 10.04 Gnome a bit.
Setup:
From the Desktop or Nautilus I double-click on a script or executable. Usually up pops that nifty window with four button choices: Run, Run in Terminal, Display, and Cancel.
I like running things in gnome-terminal to check output; reading the terminal output from a game in Wine helped me figure out what I needed to fix to get it tweaked perfectly. But the "Run in terminal" button doesn't keep the terminal window open, it autocloses as soon as I exit the program, negating the purpose of running in a terminal.
Question:
What is the best way to go about changing the behavior to allow the window to remain open? I'm thinking something akin to adding a PAUSE command into a batch file in MSDOS, but applied to all opened programs using the button. Thoughts?
