Guake start script uses wrong tty #652

Open electrodude opened 8 years ago

electrodude commented 8 years ago

Any program specified in "Path to script executed on Guake start" gets run on Guake's controlling tty, not on the tty in the first tab Guake opens.

In other words, if you put echo 'Hello World!' there, quit guake, and run guake in a non-Guake terminal, the text Hello World! will appear on the non-Guake terminal that you typed guake into, but when you look at Guake, all you'll see is an empty prompt.

indeed, this is not executed inside guake, it's just a way to execute a script at startup. Will be reworked in 1.0
