Description Michael Hutchinson 2008-08-29 19:13:07 UTC
The "External console" currently invokes Gnome-Terminal or XTerm. This isn't easily portable to Windows or OS X, and is less than ideal on Gnome-less Linux desktops.

This functionality should therefore be move to the platform service, with a fallback error message if a terminal is not available.
