xfce4-terminal: Keep the terminal around after the executed command finishes executing.
$ xfce4-terminal --command "${command_with_args}" --hold
try on your machine

This command is used to open the XFCE Terminal and execute a specified command with arguments.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • xfce4-terminal is the command to launch the XFCE Terminal.
  • --command "${command_with_args}" specifies the command that needs to be executed within the terminal. The ${command_with_args} is a placeholder for the actual command and its arguments.
  • --hold is an option that tells the terminal to stay open even after the specified command finishes executing. This is useful when you want to view the output or results of the command before the terminal window closes.

By using this command, you can open the XFCE Terminal and execute any desired command with its arguments, all while keeping the terminal window open after the command is executed.
