Desktop environment that raises terminal with gnu-screen instead of starting new one
I want to start a gnu-screen
session, in a terminal, from gnome. I wrote the following desktop file
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Screen
Comment=Use the command line
Keywords=shell;prompt;command;commandline;cmd;
TryExec=gnome-terminal
Exec=gnome-terminal --window --full-screen -e 'screen -x autoscreen'
Icon=utilities-terminal
Type=Application
Every time I run this desktop entry, the new gnome terminal with gnu-screen
session starts. But, I would like to switch to the already running window, not start a new one.
gnu-screen gnome-terminal .desktop
