Run script in new terminal
Hi Guys,
I have a script that runs certain simulations in batch mode. I need to schedule some simulations to run over night.
For each simulation to complete it should be run in separate terminal.
My script is as follows
sh run_test.sh <arg1> <arg2> <arg3> ...
I need to launch this command in a separate terminal so I use :
gnome-terminal --window -e "sh run_test.sh <arg1> <arg2> <arg3> ..."
I tried:
gnome-terminal --window -e "sh run_test.sh <arg1> <arg2> <arg3> ..."
But it does not work. The terminal is opened for a fraction of second then close immediately.
Kindly advise.
Thanks
