I would make a bash script that does what you want and add it to a directory your path, then just call it from a launcher and be done with it.
ex.: make an executable called joeview and put it in /usr/local/bin or ~/bin (and make sure that's in your path!):
$ cat joeview
#!/bin/bash
nohup gwenview filename.jpg >/dev/null 2>&1 &
$
Alt+F2 joeview enter
You probably wouldn't even need nohup or the & at that point!

Thanks very much! This works. I gwenview now stays open when I
closet terminal.
So I just have to wonder, is there perhaps yet a further syntax
option so that gwenview stays open and terminal automatically closes
without requiring the extra step of manually closing it?
