Summary:                    xterm will not run app without -e (xterm window opens, then closes).
Description: 
Set up this in a launcher:

xterm vpnclient connect "Faculty-Staff Off Campus"

When the command (without the xterm) is run from an xterm the window stays
open until ^C is used.

When the command above is entered into a launcher window the xterm opens
and closes immediately.  I had to add -e to the xterm command to get it to
work.

xterm -e vpnclient connect "Faculty-Staff Off Campus"
