Please, don’t introduce yet another way how to identify the terminal emulator used #12

Open mcepl opened 2 months ago

  1. rofi uses $TERMINAL
  2. xdg-terminal uses $TERM (which is rather dumb IMHO, also this is being discussed)
  3. xdg-terminal-exec uses special configuration files
  4. You seem to use $TERMCMD

Could you please sit down and agree on something? Please?

This was created as a PoC for ranger specifically, which supports TERMCMD. I'm not attached to this over the other methods, but I don't have time to actively maintain the project myself. Contributions/forks with alternatives welcome if this motivates you, as with all things FLOSS.
