I've just realised that may not work for you as the freedesktop spec
[1] says

"Field codes must not be used inside a quoted argument, the result of
field code expansion inside a quoted argument is undefined."

So it may not work for you using %F to specify passing multiple files
to your script like:

Exec=lxterminal --geometry=80x30 -e "sh -c /my/script %F"
