We never did (and still do not) guarantee any order in which terminal emulators are tried. Quoting from the i3-sensible-terminal man page: > Please don’t complain about the order: If the user has any preference, they > will have $TERMINAL set or modified their i3 configuration file. This commit moves mate-terminal to the beginning of the list, which is considered the most accessible terminal emulator among blind users. fixes https://github.com/i3/i3/issues/4256

||
|
||
== NAME
|
||
|
||
i3-sensible-terminal - launches $TERMINAL with fallbacks
|
||
|
||
== SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
||
i3-sensible-terminal [arguments]
|
||
|
||
== DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
||
i3-sensible-terminal is invoked in the i3 default config to start a terminal.
|
||
This wrapper script is necessary since there is no distribution-independent
|
||
terminal launcher (but for example Debian has x-terminal-emulator).
|
||
Distribution packagers are responsible for shipping this script in a way which
|
||
is appropriate for the distribution.
|
||
|
||
It tries to start one of the following (in that order):
|
||
|
||
* $TERMINAL (this is a non-standard variable)
|
||
* x-terminal-emulator (only present on Debian and derivatives)
|
||
* mate-terminal
|
||
* gnome-terminal
|
||
* terminator
|
||
* xfce4-terminal
|
||
* urxvt
|
||
* rxvt
|
||
* termit
|
||
* Eterm
|
||
* aterm
|
||
* uxterm
|
||
* xterm
|
||
* roxterm
|
||
* termite
|
||
* lxterminal
|
||
* terminology
|
||
* st
|
||
* qterminal
|
||
* lilyterm
|
||
* tilix
|
||
* terminix
|
||
* konsole
|
||
* kitty
|
||
* guake
|
||
* tilda
|
||
* alacritty
|
||
* hyper
|
||
|
||
Please don’t complain about the order: If the user has any preference, they will
|
||
have $TERMINAL set or modified their i3 configuration file.
