[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Exec=sh -c 'vitor;sleep 5'
Terminal=true
Name=Vitor - Edit tor configuration files (torrc)
GenericName=Vitor - Edit tor configuration files (torrc)
Comment=Vitor - Edit tor configuration files (torrc)
Categories=System
Icon=/usr/share/icons/anon-icon-pack/nyx.ico ## update icon
Keywords=system;tor;torrc;vitor;vi;

Need to update the icon but I don't have one

Benefit:

• No need to use terminal wrapper
• No need to use shortcuts that just refer to the command then sleep
• Sleep just some seconds and the window will be closed automatically.

This would hopefully be auto generated by Qubes.
As long as non-Qubes desktop files are functional, Qubes should be able to pick it up from there. Otherwise that would be a Qubes bug.

Exec=sh -c 'vitor;sleep 5'

Suggested change:

Exec=sh -c 'vitor;sleep infinity'

As per: nyxnor/tor-ctrl#20 (comment)

In other words, please do not manually create such a file.

Could you please commit to this git repository?

Even without icon, better than nothing.
