using kde desktop menu editor, I created a shortcut for a terminal command, /etc/rc.d/init.d/apcupsd status
Now when I click it, a terminal window opens, runs the command and very quickly shuts. I see there is a "terminal options" box in the properties for the menu shortcut, any idea what can put in there to keep the terminal window open?

Thanks!
Ok, I know this was posted some years back now but the question's still valid and I was wondering the same thing myself.
A KDE shortcut has properties, and one of these is "run in terminal" for which a "terminal options" box is present. These are the Konsole command-line options which are fully listed at http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kdebas...e-options.html.
Hope this helps!
