I’m not exactly sure what those do.
I mean, I can do a workaround by using an alias that uses the gnome-terminal --window --tab ... stuff. But what is the Commands tab in Preference supposed to do. What does “run command as login shell” mean or “run a custom command instead of my shell”? Why if I select “run a command as a login shell” do I not get to enter a command to run? Why are these “help” pages so obtuse? Terminal
The help file says that “The command will be passed to the terminal exactly as you write it, including any arguments that you specify” but that’s not what happens. Putting cd ~/Whatever in that box returns an error.
