Description dnord 2016-05-22 07:28:25 CEST
How to reproduce:
* Open C++ source with Thunar using Vim
Happened: Vim opened in xterm
Expected: Vim opened in default terminal emulator (xfce4-terminal in my case)
Distro: Ubuntu 16.04
Version: Thunar 1.6.10
Comment 1 Viktor Odintsev editbugs 2018-04-22 09:52:27 CEST
Thunar uses g_app_info_launch to run applications. For terminal applications, it will look for gnome-terminal, xterm and other hardcoded terminal emulators and try to run using them https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/blob/d0364b443805dcb832c200fcf8bf58a64fdf3e7d/gio/gdesktopappinfo.c#L2476
