Change terminal from x-term to mate-terminal

How can I change my terminal from x-term to mate-terminal so when I click open terminal here it uses mate-terminal?

I use Thunar as my file manager.

Re: Change terminal from x-term to mate-terminal

In Thunar, edit the "Open in Terminal" custom action. If it uses the "exo-open" command, then change your default terminal emulator in Settings Manager > Preferred Applications > Utilities tab.

Thanks. Here is what I needed.

I had already changed my default terminal emulator to mate-terminal.

mate-terminal --working-directory=%f
