Hi Sysgate,
Thanks for your participation. Well, today I figured it out and I discovered a lot more.
Yes, it is gnome-terminal which I can run with Run An Application utility. I found it in Add to Panel feature wherein I found other interesting stuffs too.
Have a nice time!
Dev.

Under GNOME, I believe, the name of the terminal is "gnome-terminal", at least this is what I was able to find in the net. HTH.

term::interact::menu(3tcl) Terminal control term::interact::menu(3tcl)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
term::interact::menu - Terminal widget, menu
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.4
package require term::interact::menu ?0.1?
term::interact::menu object dict ?options...?
object interact
object done
object clear
object configure
object configure option
object configure option value...
object cget option
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
This package provides a class for the creation of a simple menu control.
CLASS API
The package exports a single command, the class command, enabling the creation of menu instances. Its API is:
term::interact::menu object dict ?options...?
This command creates a new menu object with the name object, initializes it, and returns the fully qualified name of the object com-
mand as its result.
The argument is the menu to show, possibly followed by configuration options and their values. The options are explained in the sec-
tion Configuration. The menu is a dictionary maping labels to symbolic action codes.
OBJECT API
The objects created by the class command provide the methods listed below:
object interact
Shows the menu in the screen at the configured location and starts interacting with it. This opens its own event loop for the pro-
cessing of incoming characters. The method returns when the interaction has completed. See section Interaction for a description of
the possible interaction.
The method returns the symbolic action of the menu item selected by the user at the end of the interaction.
object done
This method can be used by user supplied actions to terminate the interaction with the object.
object clear
This method can be used by user supplied actions to remove the menu from the terminal.
object configure
object configure option
object configure option value...
object cget option
Standard methods to retrieve and configure the options of the menu.
CONFIGURATION
A menu instance recognizes the following options:
-in chan
Specifies the channel to read character sequences from. Defaults to stdin.
-out chan
Specifies the channel to write the menu contents to. Defaults to stdout.
-column int
Specifies the column of the terminal where the left margin of the menu display should appear. Defaults to 0, i.e. the left-most col-
umn.
-line int
Specifies the line of the terminal where the top margin of the menu display should appear. Defaults to 0, i.e. the top-most line.
-height int
Specifies the number of lines of text to show at most in the display. Defaults to 25.
-actions dict
Specifies a dictionary containing additional actions, using character sequences as keys. Note that these sequences cannot override
the hardwired sequences described in section Interaction.
-hilitleft int
-hilitright int
By default the entire selected menu entry is highlighted in revers output. However, when present these two options restrict revers
dispay to the specified sub-range of the entry.
-framed bool
By default the menu is shown using only header and footer out of characters box graphics. If this flag is set the menu is fully
enclosed in a box.
INTERACTION
A menu object recognizes the control sequences listed below and acts as described. The user can supply more control sequences to act on via
the configuration, but is not able to overide these defaults.
Cursor Up
The selection is moved up one entry, except if the first entry of the menu is already selected.
Cursor Down
The selection is moved down one entry, except if the last entry of the menu is already selected.
Enter/Return
The interaction with the object is terminated.
