You need to give much more information here, e.g. post the shell script. Shell scripts don't normally "appear in a workspace". Are you using a widget set? Which one? tk?

thanks for your reply:

well, my sript are simple, it starts a gnome-terminal and execute some command in it. it looks like this:

#!/bin/bash
gnome-terminal -t JACK -e start_jack.sh

so, how would i script it in such a way that when the gnome-terminal comes up, it will be in the workspace i specified.

thanks

CHUN
