Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-terminal
This is a wishlist item:
When using gnome-terminal with the -e or --command argument, stdin for gnome-terminal should be piped to stdin for the executed command. This would make gnome terminal far more useful, for example:
% bzr diff | gnome-terminal -e less
continue working..
% ps aux | gnome-terminal -e less
continue working..
I tried this first example today and was shocked when it -didn't- work, I find the same feature lacking in xterm as well.

thanks for the report, this needs to be forwarded upstream by someone interested on the feature, leaving this as incomplete until that, for forwarding instructions please have a look to https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/Bugs/ Upstream/ GNOME ; thanks in advance.
