Operating Systems Solaris Script to launch terminal window? Post 76790 by zylwyz on Thursday 30th of June 2005 02:23:22 PM

Bug

/usr/bin/term -e "vi" # I mean what term can be and other console, and dir can
be other.
Look, do some commands to find a terminal programs on your unix:
Code:
ls /usr/bin|grep term
ls /usr/bin|grep rxvt
ls /usr/bin|grep console

Just then you can type: /usr/bin/$term -e "vi"
option "-e" is "execute command". Smilie
