Cherrytree: Code execution blocks cherrytree

[4Syno]

General Information:

Distribution: Ubuntu 20.04
Desktop Environment: Budgie
CherryTree Package Type: deb
CherryTree Version: 0.99.14

Code execution blocks cherrytree; It’s pausing in the background..
Closing the script brings it back to life.
I can't reproduce this with your windows version.

Did you check the terminal preferences settings ?
Is xterm command working ?
xterm -hold -geometry 180x45 -e "ls ~"

Hi ciranus,
thanks for your feedback.
terminal preferences settings are almost default: xterm -hold -geometry 180x45 -e "<command>"
xterm works and sending commands outside of cherrytree have the same behavior.

So I extend the command with ‘&’ on the end and this works for me. If someone else facing this problem here my terminal preferences setting:

xterm -fa 'Monospace' -fs 12 -hold -geometry 140x35 -e "<command>" &

Maybe I should add the trailing ampersand as default, what's your opinion @txe ?

It can be convenient for users to run several scripts simultaneously, I don't see drawbacks here.

[ciranus]

No drawback for me either.
Maybe also an opportunity to add -fa 'Monospace' to improve the readability of default xterm font.

I'll check how the -fa 'Monospace' looks thanks, never used before
