Gnome Terminal Launcher applet reads the profiles from GConf and creates the corresponding menu entry to invoke the gnome-terminal command and its arguments.

If you are a system administrator, perhaps a command line junkie, and you deal with a large number of servers on a daily basis, you may have already created profiles to define the connection characteristics of each server.

I've also experienced an improvement in usability assigning a different color and icon to a server or group of servers. After a while, you can quicly identify which server are you connected to with just a glimpse of the screen.

But this has a drawback, the only way to open a terminal is from another terminal unless you've already created launchers for the specific profiles.

To provide a cleaner solution. I've create the gnome-terminal-launcher applet that reads the profiles from GConf and creates the corresponding menu entry to invoke the gnome-terminal command and its arguments.

Requirements:
GTK+ version 2.2.x

What's New in This Release:
A problem with profiles sharing the beginning of the name (map) was fixed.
