Create launcher for applications operating through the terminal

Here we have created a launcher for applications, operating through the terminal, this may disadvantage those who wish to launch or create links to these applications.
To do this follow these three steps:

1. Create a launcher with the terminal of our choice:
For example, my favorite is terminal Xterm and I run Moc:
The command would look like this:
xterm -e mocp
Here are a list of terminal emulators for you to use:

gnome-terminal -x mocp
sakura -e mocp
konsole -e mocp
xterm +u8 -e mocp

2. Create a script:.
Open a new file with our favorite text editor and put the following:

#!/bin/bash
xterm -e mocp

Save the file and then give it execute permissions:

# chmod +x filename

3. Create a hotkey for the program:
This depends on the program or environment that are using (can be in gnome, kde, Openbox) or any program(for that as xbindkeys)

I hope you can use them now.
