Question

I want to make a launcher for a c program I made and I want it to run in terminal. How would I do this? I don’t even have the slightest idea

Answer 1

Just create a text file, save it to the Desktop as e.g. my_C_program.command (note the .command suffix), then in the text file you can put whatever terminal commands you like, e.g.

# run my_C_program
my_C_program arg1 arg2

Note: after saving the .command file you need to make sure it is executable:

$ chmod +x ~/Desktop/my_C_program.command

This will give you a double-clickable icon on the desktop called my_C_program that runs my_C_program via the command line. (This assumes my_C_program is somewhere in your PATH).
