.SH NAME
\f[B]rofi\-sensible\-terminal\f[R] \- launches $TERMINAL with fallbacks
.SH SYNOPSIS
rofi\-sensible\-terminal [arguments]
.SH DESCRIPTION
rofi\-sensible\-terminal is invoked in the rofi default config to start
a terminal.
This wrapper script is necessary since there is no
distribution\-independent terminal launcher (but for example Debian has
x\-terminal\-emulator).
Distribution packagers are responsible for shipping this script in a way
which is appropriate for the distribution.
