Launchy doesn't honor the "Term" (Open in terminal) option of .desktop files in Linux.

This means that any applications requiring a terminal emulator to run (htop for one instance) don't run at all.

The patch prepends the command line for terminal applications with x-terminal-emulator to fix that issue.
