Creating a desktop link in DSL to open a script in aterm?



It has been a while since I have used linux, but just worked on the
development of some pretty neat financial software and using DSL to run it
easily in VmWare.

Anyways, I have 3 scripts that launch my server apps. As of right now I have
to open an aterm window then enter /path/script.sh and then open another
window and repeat. I have to have the term windows open since they show
heartbeats and etc.

Anyways, what i can NOT figure out, and been at this for 2 days is how to
create a desktop link that will automatically launch my script in an aterm
window.

I have created the desktop lnk's and use Type: program and my command has
been: aterm -T "label" -e /path/script.sh It won't work, the window opens
then closes. I have been through every variable of aterm that I can find and
no luck. I have been referencing other links that call on scripts and that
is how I got the syntax. Also, I am using JWM as the window manager and even
tried making a menu item, but that doesn't work.

So, the jist of it is, I can manually open aterm and put in the full path
and script and it runs, now how do I make a desktop link that will do that
for me?
