Launching files in vim with a click

In GNOME, they let you add custom commands to associate a file with a certain program to open it. This has proven pretty useful for me as I have been able to change my music files to associate with audacious and my movies to associate with mplayer, so now I would like to do the same kind of thing, but with text files. How do I make it so that I can double click on a source code file and it will open it in an instance of vim in the terminal? I know you can just have it open with gvim, but I prefer working with vim in the terminal because I have my terminal set to be transparent, and I like that (it is pretty useful sometimes). The closest i have come to getting a double click of a .c or .asm file to launch a terminal and start vim is the following command ' gnome-terminal -e vim ', but that will only allow me to start a blank vim (i.e. it doesn't open the file i clicked on), so I figure I need some sort of way to specify "this file" or the file that I just clicked on, but I don't know how to do this. I've tried looking for a solution online and it is a difficult problem for me to describe so it doesn't lend itself well to a google search. Any help you can provide is appreciated.

/usr/bin/vim ~/Zvim

#!/bin/bash

/usr/bin/gnome-terminal -e "/usr/bin/vim $1"
:wq


Right click on a .c file, properties, open with, Add, Use a custom command, browse, point it to "/home/zorak/Zvim", Open then Add and Close

Double click on a .c file it should open inside vi in a gnome-terminal

Repeat for .asm files and any other extensions you want

This was tested and confirmed to work on Fedora

Perhaps not the most elegant way to do it but hey it works.

So this script has been pretty useful to me, but even so I have tried to find a way to improve it. The change I've tried to make is to have an instance of bash running on top of gnome-terminal and have that instance of bash start vim. That way, when I close vim or ^z vim, I still have a fully functioning shell to work with. More accurately, I've been using a modified form of this script under cygwin at work, and now I am trying to add the functionality I just described.

So, the script should do this: gnome-terminal (rxvt at work) ----> bash ----> vim with the file i want to edit

I tried doing the following: (at home) gnome-terminal -e bash -l -i -c "vim "$1""
(at work) rxvt -e bash -l -i -c "vim "%1""

both of these commands will work in that they will get vim to open up in a terminal, but if i ^z out of vim or if i :q I don't have an instance of bash to fall back on. In the case of ^z, the program is successfully stopped, but since there is no shell to drop to, I can't start it again or execute commands. If I :q, the whole window closes. I appreciate any additional light you can shed on this subject.
