Can't you just alias the command as above, so that when you execute 'lynx' it launches 'xterm -e lynx'? Do you have more than one terminal app installed? How would it know which terminal you want to use for any particular command? Or which profile you want to use, if you have more than one? Some things I like to run in a borderless, (pseudo-)transparent gnome-termimal; some things in an xterm; some things in a regular gnome-terminal (default profile; i.e., what starts when I just click on the terminal icon on my panel or select "Terminal" from the Gnome Applications menu). You have to set up your preferences. -- Michael M. ++ Portland, OR ++ USA "No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream." --S.
