Hi Sysgate,


Thanks for your participation. Well, today I figured it out and I discovered a lot more. Smilie

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.
