 we could have also renamed the actual binary and then saved the wrapper in its place, or we could have modified the launcher file, but both of these solutions will probably brake on each update of terminator, while our little hack, although not pretty, will survive updates as well.

+==== Thinlinc ====
+if you are using thinlinc to connect to your linux machine, thinlinc will not source ''/etc/environment'' to start building the ''PATH'' variable but it will use its own initial calue for ''PATH'' as defined in ''/opt/thinlinc/etc/conf.d/vsmagent.hconf'' and unfortunately by default it will check ''/bin'' before ''/usr/bin/local'' which makes the above script useless. the simplest solution is to adjust the order of directories in that config file so taht ''/usr/local/bin'' is checked first. here is an example, what a working PATH may look like in ''vsmagent.hconf''
+  PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/opt/thinlinc/bin:/usr/bin/X11
