xterm has a '-hold' option:
-hold   Turn on the hold resource, i.e., xterm will not immediately
destroy its window when the shell command completes.  It will wait until
you use the window  manager  to  destroy/kill  the window, or if you use
the menu entries that send a signal, e.g., HUP or KILL.

Perhaps gnome-terminal has a similar option?
