Nothing like that is necessary in Sigil's preferences. Just create a bash script with the command(s) you want, make it executable and configure Sigil's "Open With" feature (right-click file in Book Browser), or the "Launch External XHTML Editor" feature to launch the bash script. But a terminal emulator is not an editor. So how are you hoping to edit xml/xhtml by merely opening a terminal? The External Editor is passing a file name (or file names) as a parameter to be opened by an executable program (or at least accepted as a parameter to a bash script).
And if you're trying to print stuff to a terminal emulator in order to capture the output, there's character encoding to factor in.
