Executing an application via xterm
 

Hi, anybody know how to execute a file via xterm? But the problem is the application has some terms:

1. It requires resources, like data files or such, in different folders inside the folder of the executable.

2. It displayed a log into the screen (it cout-ed every log or status onto the screen) so I needed the xterm to not close after executing the application.

Thanks in advance.

BTW, I've done this:
But everytime I exited from the application, the xterm windows also killed. What I want is the xterm's windows to still exist even when I have exited the application because I needed to look at the log that was written on the screen.

Thanks in advance.

Can't you simply launch xterm by itself and then launch the /home/user/application from there? Just a guess...

i'm not completely sure, but isn't it possible to run that application like this:

# pathtoapp/app >> log

i think it is.. can't verify atm tho
