When I run command gnome-terminal.wrapper
it open terminal similar to gnome-terminal
.
What is gnome-terminal.wrapper
? How it differs from gnome-terminal
?
To put it shortly, gnome-terminal.wrapper
is a perl script that sets up the arguments for gnome-terminal
and then runs exec
call that spawns gnome-terminal
with those arguments.
Wrapper scripts are very frequently used to set up environment for different applications and other scripts.
Loosely related to this question are What is a terminal wrapper? and Ctrl-Alt-t opens root terminal instead of normal terminal
