I3-SENSIBLE-TERMINAL(1) i3 Manual I3-SENSIBLE-TERMINAL(1) NAME i3-sensible-terminal - launches $TERMINAL with fallbacks SYNOPSIS i3-sensible-terminal [arguments] DESCRIPTION i3-sensible-terminal is invoked in the i3 default config to start a terminal. This wrapper script is necessary since there is no distribution-independent terminal launcher (but for example Debian has x-terminal-emulator). Distribution packagers are responsible for shipping this script in a way which is appropriate for the distribution. It tries to start one of the following (in that order): • $TERMINAL (this is a non-standard variable) • x-terminal-emulator (only present on Debian and derivatives) • mate-terminal • gnome-terminal • terminator • xfce4-terminal • urxvt • rxvt • termit • Eterm • aterm • uxterm • xterm • roxterm • termite • lxterminal • terminology • st • qterminal • lilyterm • tilix • terminix • konsole • kitty • guake • tilda • alacritty • hyper Please don’t complain about the order: If the user has any preference, they will have $TERMINAL set or modified their i3 configuration file.
