Terminal Execution By Giving a Command
Hi Guys,
I am using Red Hat Linux 5 and GNOME Terminal is available there in the Accessories menu of Applications. But I don't see any run command option which can be used to type the name of the terminal and execute it directly as I used to do it under Mandrake Linux wherein I would type terminal and the terminal would get opened.
Thanks!
Dev.

TTYTYPE(5) Linux Programmer's Manual TTYTYPE(5)
NAME
ttytype - terminal device to default terminal type mapping
DESCRIPTION
The /etc/ttytype file associates termcap/terminfo terminal type names with tty lines. Each line consists of a terminal type, followed by
whitespace, followed by a tty name (a device name without the /dev/) prefix.
This association is used by the program tset(1) to set the environment variable TERM to the default terminal name for the user's current
tty.
This facility was designed for a traditional time-sharing environment featuring character-cell terminals hardwired to a Unix minicomputer.
It is little used on modern workstation and personal Unixes.
FILES
/etc/ttytype
the tty definitions file.
EXAMPLE
A typical /etc/ttytype is:
con80x25 tty1
vt320 ttys0
SEE ALSO
termcap(5), terminfo(5), agetty(8), mingetty(8)
