Launching application in terminal

[Guttagrynna]

I have the Eeebuntu LXDE Beta 2 installed on my EeePC 900. It works great, a tremendous improvement to the standard Eeebuntu with Gnome!

My problem: I have Octave installed, a command line application for mathematical/ numerical calculations. I want to be able to start it from LXlauncher, but it doesn't work. I have made sure the "Terminal=true" line is present in the .desktop file. Could it be that I need to specify the terminal emulator somewhere else?

Thanks in advance!

Hi

The quick 'n dirty way would be, to add a "lxterminal -e" in front of the command.

Yes, that worked just fine!

And I am finally back on the forum after a bug for Swedish translations of the forum was fixed! Thanks Medical-Wei.

If anyone knows the less quick and dirty way, I am still curious to know.
