Gnome Files - how to change default terminal for "open in terminal"
How does one change the terminal that Gnome Files uses when opening a directory in terminal using "Open in Terminal"? I'm trying to change the default to foot.
All my searching has led to
sudo update-alternatives --config x-terminal-emulator
undefined
Selection Path Priority Status ------------------------------------------------------------ 0 /usr/bin/gnome-terminal.wrapper 40 auto mode * 1 /usr/bin/foot 20 manual mode 2 /usr/bin/footclient 10 manual mode 3 /usr/bin/gnome-terminal.wrapper 40 manual mode 4 /usr/bin/koi8rxterm 20 manual mode 5 /usr/bin/lxterm 30 manual mode 6 /usr/bin/uxterm 20 manual mode 7 /usr/bin/xterm 20 manual mode
which I can select foot. But Gnome Files does not seem to respect this.
I've also tried directly editing
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.default-applications.terminal exec foot
where the default exec option is x-terminal-emulator. This also does not work.
