Hello,
Following the frequently asked question:
I figured a very clean solution.
here I set kitty as the default terminal by pointing x-terminal-emulator to it, a standard fallback for applications.
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/kitty /usr/local/bin/x-terminal-emulator
You can natively execute programs in terminal by creating ~/.local/share/applications/superfile.desktop:
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=Superfile
Comment=Terminal-based file manager
Exec=spf %F
Terminal=true
Categories=Utility;FileManager;
make sure x-terminal-emulator is not already in a system executable path.
If some programs fail to query x-terminal-emulator, you may point xterm also.
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/kitty /usr/bin/xterm
I am not a fan of desktop environments.
