Ubuntu – Set Ctrl+Alt+T to open a maximized terminal

gnome-terminalshortcut-keys

I use the Ctrl+Alt+T shortcut to open a terminal, but I cannot see how I can get it maximized. When I start it manually, I can simply do a gnome-terminal --maximize, but that does not apply for the shortcut. Even a changing of the .desktop files did not change anything.

Any way to let the shortcut open a maximized terminal window?

I use regular Gnome 2 on Ubuntu 11.04 with no compositing effects.

Best Answer

In gconf-editor set the key

/apps/compiz-1/plugins/gnomecompat/screen0/options/command_terminal

to gnome-terminal --maximize
