osso-xterm -e ssh -l root -L 3389:192.111.1.1:3389 222.222.222.222 -p 22
osso-xterm -e ssh -l root -L 3389:192.111.1.1:3389 222.222.222.222 -p 22

slightly off topic, but it looks like the expertises exist here.
I want to run a command in xTerminal (ssh) i would like to create an icon on my desktop.
Please explain how to make a desktop icon to run a xTerminal command for dummy?
thanks Tim (ps I used "personal menu" on my n810 to do this)
Modify the .desktop file to include the following line. The right side should be the name of file without the .png. (the name of my file was topx.png)
Code:
Icon=topx
my topx.desktop shortcut-with-icon for 'top' looks like this:
Code:
[Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Version=0.1 Type=Application Terminal=true Name=topx Exec=/usr/bin/osso-xterm top Icon=topx X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

At least on my phone, I discovered the following commented-out stanza:

Edit: on a whim I uncommented it (removing the <!-- and --> lines) and it seems to work fine.
I changed the systemui.xml config but see no change yet, I suppose a reboot is in order?

There are a lot of icon directories in diff sizes and I'm trying to understand them.

I'm not so sure about this but just a guess..
And also i didn't get to work my icon to xterm ssh until i changed "Terminal=true" to "Terminal=false" in app.desktop file.
