Hello,

I have a small problem with kstart (SUSE 9.3 with KDE 3.5.3). I want
to use it to pop up a konsole when I log into KDE. In that Konsole I
want to mount my TRUECRYPT images, and after that the rest of the
script should go on. But not before the Images are successfully mounted.

I start that konsole with

> kstart --alldesktops --window "Truecrypt" --windowclass "konsole" konsole -T "Truecrypt"  -e \
> truecrypt ...

The problem is that I find no way to tell the script to wait until
that truecrypt command is finished.

"Normal" commands show that behaviour, if you call them with
"COMMAND &", kstart automatically has this &.

How to solve this? I found no manpage to kstart, and the "kstart
--help" output is not to long ;-(

Thanks,
OJ
