Dumb gnome terminal question.

I've searched and searched but either I'm not using the right key words or the information isn't in print anywhere.

I'm running Cent 5.3 and I have a number of terminal profiles setup to ssh into some of my Unix servers at work, what I'm trying to do is setup shortcuts on my desktop to those terminal profiles so when I open one, it launches the exact profile I have associated with that terminal session.

Under the terminal properties there is a tab labeled "launcher" that contains a line that by default reads "gnome-terminal". I know this is where I'm suppose to enter the command sequence for the profile I want to launch but for the life of me I cannot remember what that command sequence is nor can I find any documentation on it.

I'm starting to lose hair and sleep trying to figure this out...any help is appreciated.

NAME
uum - Kana-Kanji conversion front end processor SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/uum [-J | -U | -S | -T] [-j | -u | -s | -t] [-h | -H] [-x | -X] [-k filename] [-c filename] [-r filename] [-D hostname] [-n username] [-l number] DESCRIPTION
uum command provides a Japanese language I/O environment on the terminal. When started, uum searches and reads initialization files in the following order. 1. Files under the directory set in the environment variable UUMRC 2. $HOME/.uumrc 3. /etc/lib/locale/ja/wnn/ja/uumrc 4. /usr/lib/locale/ja/wnn/ja/uumrc uum can connect to the Kana-Kanji conversion server jserver running on the machine from which uum started or another machine over the net- work. Even when uum cannot connect to the server, it can start to complete certain operations that do not require the communication with the Kana-Kanji conversion server. When a conversion key is pressed, an attempt will be made to automatically connect to jserver if uum has not already connected to it. OPTIONS
The following options are available. -H Starts with the conversion status ON (default). -h Starts with the conversion status OFF. -U Uses UJIS code on the application (the virtual terminal) (default). -J Uses JIS code on the application (the virtual terminal). -S Uses shift-JIS code on the application (the virtual terminal). -T Uses UTF--8 code on the application (the virtual terminal). -u Uses UJIS code on the terminal.(default) -j Uses JIS code on the terminal. -s Uses shift-JIS code on the terminal. -t Uses UTF--8 code on the terminal. -X Starts with terminal flow control ON (default). -x Starts with terminal flow control OFF. -k filenaSpecifies the key binding definition file. If omitted, the difinition file is searched in the following order: 1. File name specified with the setuumkey entry in the initialization file uumrc 2. /usr/lib/locale/ja/wnn/ja/uumkey -c filenaSpecifies the key code conversion table file. If omitted, the table file is searched in the following order: 1. File name specified with the setconvkey entry in the initialization file uumrc 2. /usr/lib/locale/ja/wnn/cvt_key_tbl -r filenaSpecifies the mode definition file for roman character-Kana conversion (see wnn_automaton(4)). If a directory name is given, the mode file under the directory will be used as the mode file. If omitted, the difinition file is searched in the following order: 1. File name specified with the setrkfile entry in the initialization file uumrc 2. /usr/lib/locale/ja/wnn/ja/rk/mode -l number Specifies the number of lines to be used in Kana-Kanji conversion (larger than 0, and smaller than the number of display lines - 1). The default is 1. -D hostnaSpecifies the host name of the Kana-Kanji conversion server (jserver). If omitted, the conversion server is searched in the fol- lowing order: 1. Environment variable JSERVER 2. localhost 3. UNIX domain socket -n usernaSpecifies the user name to use for the environment name for Wnn6. If omitted, the user name is searched in the following order: 1. Environment variable WNNUSER 2. User name of the user who started uum ATTRIBUTES
