NAME

       rofi-sensible-terminal - launches $TERMINAL with fallbacks

SYNOPSIS

       rofi-sensible-terminal [arguments]

DESCRIPTION

       rofi-sensible-terminal is invoked in the rofi 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-ter‐
       minal-emulator).   Distribution  packagers are responsible for shipping this script in a way which is ap‐
       propriate for the distribution.

       It tries to start one of the following (in that order):

       • $TERMINAL (this is a non-standard variable)

       • x-terminal-emulator

       • urxvt

       • rxvt

       • st

       • terminology

       • qterminal

       • Eterm

       • aterm

       • uxterm

       • xterm

       • roxterm

       • xfce4-terminal.wrapper

       • mate-terminal

       • lxterminal

       • konsole

       • alacritty

       • kitty

       • wezterm

       • foot
