So, I'm in a graphical terminal (xfce4-terminal) and I was wondering, would there be a way to type a command, and it run in a new terminal window?? An example would be like, say that I want to open a .txt file, but I want it in a different window, instead of the one that I'm currently using because of whatever reason. Would there be a way for me to type something along the lines of
and have it bring up a new terminal window, in which "example.txt" is being viewed with nano, and the original window is still there and nano is not running on it. If all of that makes since, maybe I'm making it sound too complex.

xfce4-popup-windowlist
xfce4-popup-windowlist(1) General Commands Manual xfce4-popup-windowlist(1)NAME
xfce4-popup-windowlist - shows the Xfce window list applet popup
SYNOPSIS
xfce4-popup-windowlist [ -pointer ]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the xfce4-popup-windowlist command.
xfce4-popup-windowlist shows the Xfce window list if at least one Xfce window list applet is present on one of your panel(s).
The default behaviour is to show the window list near the applet button. If you have several Xfce window list applets, only the first one
you have set up will pop up.
If you want to pop up the window list without using the window list applet on your panel(s), see the manual page for xfdesktop(1).
OPTIONS -pointer
The window list appears at your current mouse position instead of its default position.
