  <title>Custom commands and shells</title>

  <p>A <em>shell</em> is software that provides an interface for users of an
  operating system to run <em>commands</em>, which can be programs such as
  <app>top</app> or a command line shell. The default shell is usually
  <app>Bash</app>.</p>

  <p>You can set <app>Terminal</app> to run a command when it starts up instead
  of awaiting input from you:</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Press the menu button in the top-right corner of the window and select
      <gui style="menuitem">Preferences</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>In the sidebar, select your current profile in the <gui>Profiles</gui>
      section.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Select <gui style="tab">Command</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Check <gui>Run a custom command instead of my shell</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>In the text box, type the command or the desired shell.</p>
      <p>The command will be passed to the terminal exactly as you write it,
      including any arguments that you specify. Environment variables will be
      inherited from the terminal as it is a child process of the terminal.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Open a new <app>Terminal</app> tab or window to see how the custom
      shell or command executes.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>You can also <link xref="pref-custom-exit">set the behavior</link> of
  the terminal once the command finishes executing.</p>

  <note style="important">
    <p>You may have to enter full path to the command or the shell if the
    directory where the command or shell resides is not in the
    <code>PATH</code> variable of your system.</p>
  </note>
