Why you cannot run Hatari directly from XCode so that it gets run
with terminal?

I mean, in Linux doing that would be trivial.  Instead of listing in 
the .desktop file (that defines what is shown on menus and what
happens when user clicks on the menu item):
	Exec=hatari
One would have:
	Exec=xterm -T "Hatari debug window" -e hatari

User doesn't need to do anything / know anything about this.
