I seem to have installed something that replaced the default terminal with xterm. How do I get rid of it and bring the default terminal back?

In the Ubuntu Software Center search for gnome-terminal.Then Install it.
Type in the Dash gnome-terminal.That's it.

The default is gnome-terminal, but the default may have been overwritten with xterm. The command that lets you choose is sudo update-alternatives --config x-terminal-emulator .
