#!/bin/sh # Based on i3-sensible-terminal # # This code is released in public domain by Han Boetes # # This script tries to exec a terminal emulator by trying some known terminal # emulators. # # We welcome patches that add distribution-specific mechanisms to find the # preferred terminal emulator. On Debian, there is the x-terminal-emulator # symlink for example. # # Invariants: # 1. $TERMINAL must come first # 2. Distribution-specific mechanisms come next, e.g. x-terminal-emulator # 3. The terminal emulator with best accessibility comes first. # 4. No order is guaranteed/desired for the remaining terminal emulators. for terminal in "$TERMINAL" termite hyper wezterm alacritty kitty x-terminal-emulator mate-terminal gnome-terminal terminator xfce4-terminal urxvt rxvt termit Eterm aterm uxterm xterm roxterm lxterminal terminology st qterminal lilyterm tilix terminix konsole guake tilda; do if command -v "$terminal" > /dev/null 2>&1; then exec "$terminal" "$@" fi done awesome-client 'local naughty = require("naughty"); naughty.notification { message = "awesome-sensible-terminal could not find a terminal emulator.
