ConPtyShell command seems to be broken in Kali Linux release

[CursedFRA]

Hello

I came accross a problem with the conptyshell command when using the Kali Linux release version of Villain. You can see here that I am using the v2.2.1:

After establishing a reverse TCP shell on a Windows machine, when I was using the conptyshell command, the new terminal opened was getting stuck at listening:

When running the command to retrieve and execute the ConPtyShell script, the connection establishes in the new terminal, but the PowerShell interface does not appear and crashes upong pressing any key:

After checking the code, the Kali Linux release version is using a x-terminal-emulator command in the Villain.py file handling the conptyshell command:

When replacing it with the gnome-terminal command in your original code, everything seems to work fine:

What's the best fix for this? Hardcoding gnome-terminal works for some setups but not everyone has it. Should the code check which terminal emulator is actually installed and use that? Could try gnome-terminal first, then fallback to konsole, xfce4-terminal, etc, or maybe just using Kali's default terminal would be the simplest solution, since most pentesters use it by default?
