Another possible fix for Terminal 'Process Complete'

I recently had the old problem with the Terminal self exiting. For no reason, Terminal just started to self exit. It would echo some jibberish and then print Process Complete. But after reading the hints on this site already, found a simpler and more straight foward answer.
As I had not installed any new shells, I had no idea about why this had happened and did not want to reformat! So, poking around in com.apple.Terminal.plist (in ~/Library/Preferences), I found the ExecutionString value to be some wierd stuff. That stuff was the same stuff that Terminal echoed before it "completed its process." So making that value blank solved the problem.
