Category:                   other
Reproducibility:            always
Severity:                   minor

=======================================================================
Summary:                    xfterm4 -e only accepts one argument
Description: 
The following 2 invocations of xfterm4 are equivalent:

xfterm4 -e pine -p {mail.salford-systems.com}remote_pinerc
xfterm4 -e pine

The result of this is that if a launcher specifies that the application
should run in a terminal, any arguments or command-line flags are ignored.
 The following, however, works the way it's supposed to:

xfterm4 -e "pine -p {mail.salford-systems.com}remote_pinerc"
