When you run Install Updates command it opens the terminal, runs the update script and then closes the terminal:



How to prevent the terminal from closing? I have modified the command and it seems to be working ok but I would appreciate confirmation that my code is ok:

Original command:

Code: [Select]
x-terminal-emulator --geometry=95x25 -t "Linux Lite Updates" -e /usr/scripts/updates
Modified command (the terminal remains open):

Code: [Select]
x-terminal-emulator --geometry=95x25 -t "Linux Lite Updates" -e "bash -c /usr/scripts/updates;bash"
In addition I commented out the last line in the "updates" script itself, I'm not sure if it's really necessary:
