Terminal Flags for Termite
« on: September 16, 2016, 09:53:38 pm »
I am trying to get termite to run in codeblocks when I build and run code. xterm works fine with the defaults 'xterm -T $TITLE -e' but termite will open and shut in a split second if I use '-T $TITLE -e'.  Any suggestions?
Thank You

Read the manual for your terminal?
Try to start it with this command in another terminal to see what the error is.

I have read the man page several times, termite doesn't seem to have many options in it. I've tried -e, -t even --hold, which ran and just gave me a new terminal with no output.
Running 'termite -e' gives "option parsing failed: Missing argument for -e'.
Running 'termite -t $TITLE -e' gives "(termite:3039): Vte-WARNING **: (vtegtk.cc:1718):int vte_terminal_match_add_gregex(VteTerminal*, GRegex*, GRegexMatchFlags): runtime check failed: (g_regex_get_compile_flags(gregex) & G_REGEX_MULTILINE)" but still gives me an open terminal waiting for input.
Both of those are when I run them in a terminal. When I put that into codeblocks I still just get the quick flash and close.  Thank you for the suggestion if you have more I'm all eyes.
