Hi, I'm trying to automate some processes, where an initial command should run inside a xterm, and the xterm kept interactive thereafter (xterm -e ...). Since the culprit seem bash, I've tried most ways of invoking bash with -i, -s and -c options, but as soon as I give bash the -c option, it exits after the command itself, no matter if any of -i or -s is also given, which differs from my reading/understanding of related sections in the manual. Has somebody in the kind audience tried to accomplish such a task before and want to share the findings?
