Hi,

I am running stock openSUSE-13.1 using the KDE desktop. I am rather new to KDE 4 and am still getting used to it and have a number of questions WRT setting it up and using it. This is the first of my questions.

I would like to be able to configure Konsole to be able to start up Konsole instances with multiple tabs and other specific attributes. I've investigated Konsole Profiles and the "Manage Profiles" settings, but can't seem to be able to find what settings I will need to accomplish this.

With previous versions of KDE (esp KDE 3.x), I was able to create Konsole profiles such that I could start up Konsoles by using a command something like, "konsole --profile MyProfile", and get what I needed. IIRC, I may have had to manually edit some of the files involved to get things just right, but I was able to make it work as desired.

Does anything like this (or, at least functionally equivalent, however, it is implemented and configured) in the KDE 4 in openSUSE-13.1?

not an exact answer to what you asked, but you might like to use a script like the following to create tabs (default 9 more) #!/bin/bash # make "x" more, start naming at $2 case $# in 0) hm=9 # how many sn=2 # starting number ;; 1) hm=$1 sn=2 ;; *) hm=$1 sn=$2 ;; esac x=0 while test $x -lt $hm ; do kn=$(( x + sn )) konsole --new-tab -p tabtitle="$kn) %D" x=$(( x + 1 )) done it gives them ascending numerical names so you'll always know where you are -- I have it saved as "mxm", and use it after starting konsole -- enjoy -- _|_ _ __|_|_ ._ o| |_(_)(_)|_| ||_)||< | -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
