Hi, I maintain termit. My opinion is, that the policy should rather ask for sane behaviour and the proposed change does not look sane.
Could you please also ammend this topic with a few test cases to make testing our terminal emulators easier and to be sure that we're all talking about the same subject? e.g. T=x-terminal-emulator 1. $T -e bc # runs bc as normal 2. $T -e "bc --quiet" # fails? 3. $T -e bc --quiet # runs bc in quiet mode? 4. $T -e "bc *" # * is not expanded since there's no shell started? 5. $T -e bc * # Is * expanded?
