I have been using this external editor command for the Sylpheed mailer: gnome-terminal --disable-factory -x vim '%s' This allows launching a terminal with vi so that I can capture shell command output, edit things with vi and insert files and such. This is a very powerful and important feature. However after installing F24, this no longer works. The --disable-factory option is no longer supported. It launches but after returning control to Sylpheed, the content is lost. Nothing is inserted into the message. I can only assume this has something to do with --disable-factory. Does anyone have a recommended work-around? I know gnome-terminal is "special" so perhaps there is another terminal for Fedora? What is the most popular terminal other than gnome-terminal? I pretty much only use Linux for the shell and vi. I have about 10 terminals on 5 workspaces going concurrently. So I'm hoping hard that there are still decent terminals around.
