<p>Prepends a terminal (either the one configured as default in
the user's GNOME setup, or one of the common xterm emulators) to the passed
in vector, modifying it in the process. The vector should be allocated with
<a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/glib/glib-Memory-Allocation.html#g-malloc"><span class="type">g_malloc</span></a>, as this will <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/glib/glib-Memory-Allocation.html#g-free"><span class="type">g_free</span></a> the original vector. Also all elements must
have been allocated separately. That is the standard glib/GNOME way of
doing vectors however. If the integer that <em class="parameter"><code>argc</code></em>
points to is negative, the
size will first be computed. Also note that passing in pointers to a vector
that is empty, will just create a new vector for you.</p>
