+ * panel_run_dialog_prepend_terminal_to_vector:
+ * @argc: a pointer to the vector size
+ * @argv: a pointer to the vector
+ *
+ * Description:  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
+ * #g_malloc, as this will #g_free 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 @argc 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.
