Need help with script to launch MC in terminal (Solved) |
|
Hey, this should be an easy one for someone knowledgable to answer.
Despite the fact that there's a dot-pup of Midnight Commander, I recently downloaded the 1.05alpha release of Puppy and am experimenting with compiling programs.
So, I have installed MC from source, and was wondering what I should put in a script to lauch MC in a terminal without having to first open the terminalk, then type "mc".
Something like (and i'm guessing here, i know that it's not correct)
Code: | {xterminal emulator} mc |
Please help this fumbling newbie, can't seem to help myself today....
Any help deeply appreciated
EDIT:
I know that to run a program like XMMS, which isn't dependent on a terminal to run, I could write
...but MC seems dependent on the xterm or whatever.... hmmm

Doopdoop, that worked, thanks a bundle.
I had seen that somewhere before, but couldn't seem to use my powers of recollection or searching prowess to find the answer myself...
Thanks!
