I want to use terminator instead of default terminal in Ubuntu mate. I changed it in dconf Editor but the entry is DEPRECATED because managed by GIO.

What is `GIO` ? The typical way to changing the best way to change terminal is through `gsettings` . Shouldn't be any different in `Mate` – Sergiy Kolodyazhnyy Jan 23 '16 at 22:51

Right, thank you
It was done with gsettings
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.default-applications.terminal exec /usr/bin/terminator
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.default-applications.terminal exec-arg "-x"

This is the same setting, whether edited by `dconf` Editor or by `gsettings`. It is DEPRECATED as mentioned in the question. – Amith Jan 27 '23 at 09:04
