	Uh, no offense, but why not use gnome-terminal or konsole then?  I hate to 
interrupt, since I'm not a developer; and I do not want to dissuade you.  
However, I find just as much as I need with terminals/consoles that already 
exist, such as xterm, rxvt, gnome-terminal, and konsole.  You could even put 
them on your panel with a menu, to pick which terminal you want.

	I just see no point in reinventing the wheel.  Besides that, I'm very pleased 
with Xfce 4.0.6 exactly as it is, and I'm very thankful for Xfce.

	Then again, I'll help you test it, if you want.
