Osso-Xterm and Bash

Feb 11 Osso-Xterm and Bash

I really missed the capability of executing .profile/.bashrc upon opening a new osso-xterm session. That’s not a bug nor, maybe, a real issue. But makes me feel more comfortable :)
By the way, after playing for a while a found a good hack: a slight modification to the default osso-xterm.desktop:

[Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Version=1.0 Name=X Terminal Comment=Terminal Emulator Exec=/usr/bin/osso-xterm /usr/bin/bash Icon=terminal Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=System;TerminalEmulator; X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

Download: osso-xterm-bash.desktop

It needs to be saved to /usr/share/applications/hildon

In order to have this to work, you also need bash-m package:

distribution: mistral
components: user
