Description: On Arch i686 htop-1.0.1-1 I has the incorrect information for Exec= in htop.desktop

Additional info:
* package version(s)
htop-1.0.1-1

* config and/or log files etc.
This is the cmd in the htop.desktop
Exec=htop

Steps to reproduce:

htop needs a terminal to run from, it can't be simply run from a name as Exec=htop

Everyone will have their own likes and dislikes for colors, but I personally think running it from a black terminal makes things stand out better.

This is the way in which it should at least be done for now, unless someone has a better idea...

Exec=xterm -ls -fg white -bg black -geometry 95x25 -T htop -e htop

THANKS
This task depends upon

The .desktop file already has a "Terminal=true" field
