How can I create a shortcut that run in terminal mode with idesk?[SOL]

Hello everybody, I have a question tongue.

I've installed Archlinux wih Openbox in a old machine and I made a simple script with connect through telnet to another machine. I remember in gnome I used to edit the file .desktop  like this


[Desktop Entry]
Name=Personal Script
Comment=Personal Script
Exec= sh nameofthescript.sh
Icon=file-manager
Terminal=true
Type=Application
Categories=Application;System;

I want to do the same with idesk but I really don't know how to do it and I haven't found anything about it in google.

table Icon
  Caption: Script
  Icon: /home/you/icons/tux2.svg
  Width: 32
  Height: 32
  X: 680
  Y: 174
  Command[0]: sh nameofthescript.sh
end

Is it possible to do anything similar with idesk?.. I mean, I have the shorcut working, the main problem is, I need to see the terminal running the script. Does anyone know how to do it?...
