General Commands Manual 🎀

💖 NAME

sensible-terminal — sensible terminal emulator 🦋

🧚 SYNOPSIS

sensible-terminal [-Ttitle][--wait][-ecmd...]

💅 DESCRIPTION

okay so sensible-terminal-emulator is literally the bestie who makes the sensible calls about which terminal emulator to open 🫶 It's giving decision-maker. Debian programs can use this script as their default terminal emulator, or they can copy its behavior 🌸

If the TERMINAL_EMULATOR environment variable is set, it gets used, no questions asked ✨ And any string that works as a command_string operand to sh -c is valid, so you've got lots of room to be extra 💜

👑 STANDARD

ngl this is the part with the receipts 📜 The behavior of sensible-utils on a Debian system is documented in sections 11.4-11.8 of the debian-policy doc. It's usually installed under /usr/share/doc/debian-policy, but you might need to install debian-policy first 🙈

Sign-off: SENSIBLE-TERMINAL(1) came from Debian, dated 28 Aug 2022. Stay sensible, stay iconic, bestie 💖🦋✨
