Why doesn't: sudo update-alternatives --config x-terminal-emulator Work to change the default terminal in 12.10 ubuntu-one nautilus? I find it confusing.

Since Ubuntu 12.04 there is a new tool to change default applications. According to this answer, we need to use gsettings now. I can confirm that it works on Ubuntu 13.10.

For example, if you want to use Sakura as default terminal:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.default-applications.terminal exec 'sakura'
