domterm new - create new terminal session

Synopsis

domterm [options] [shell arguments …​]

domterm [goptions] new [noptions] [shell arguments …​]

Description

The domterm new command creates a new terminal. If shell is specified, it is the name of a command that is is executed with the specified arguments. Otherwise, the default command is executed.

You can specify the default command by setting shell.default in your preferences (by default in settings.ini); if that is not set the value of the SHELL environment is used; otherwise /bin/bash is used for the default.

The new command is the default for domterm, so you can leave it out. If you leave out new but specify a shell, then the shell argument must contain a slash /. For example:

domterm /bin/csh -v
