I don't have eterm installed so I can't check, but like gnome-terminal,
it's an xterm emulator, I believe? There's probably a command line
option to eterm for it.

xterm lets you start things up with xterm -e program, which starts
up the program, and sets window title and icon to that too.
gnome-terminal gives you a choice of gnome-terminal -e program
and gnome-terminal -x program. -e runs the program instead of a shell,
-x runs it inside a shell (according to gnome-terminal --help, anyway).

I would guess man eterm or eterm --help might provide something
similar.

If you use this in a launcher, of course, you want to uncheck the
"run in terminal" option :)
