Wow, I was going to reply that the panel adds '-e' to xfterm4 when it
executes in terminal, but it doesn't:
if (in_terminal)
{
execute = g_strdup_printf ("xfterm4 %s", cmd);
}
I'm almost sure it did do so before ...
Anyway, this is a bug, thanks for making me aware of it. For now just
uncheck the option and run xterm -e "cmd args" yourself.
Thanks,
Jasper
