Hello,
I want to express my thanks for the way konsole xterm works in KDE4. I really like the way it works. It keeps settings(colors appearance and such) imediately. The only issue I have not been able to find is how to have 2 default settings. 90% of my settings are one way, So I can open my 12-14 icons with it. The problem is the other 2 I open have different sizes and appearences. When I set them up these settings mess with the ones I want as default. I have been unable to find a way to exempt the 2 windows that I want different without effecting the default settings.
So I guess what I am asking is how do I setup this so I can have my defaults for any of my main xterm's but only change but not save the ones for the other 2. I sometimes need either one. In KDE3 I have my default saved as needed for my 12-14 windows and change the other 2 after opening. This does not effect the default. Is this possible with KDE4.
Thanks I am really liking the new KDE 4. Not the best on my old computers, but on the newer ones it is fantastic. Great Work.

Exec=xterm -geometry 150x40 -e <function_you_designate>
I use this to automagically open an mc session in xterm when I plug in a compact flash card in my reader which opens in the two locations I wish.

Thanks, I should have looked at my .x.. where I auto start X application. I do it for other things not xterm. Thanks.

Hello,
I have been unable to find a way to exempt the 2 windows that I want different without effecting the default settings.
There are a couple of options. The first is that you can edit multiple profiles at once. So you could create two profiles - one for your default settings (for the first 12 tabs) and one for the other two tabs. When you want to edit a default settings, select both profiles in the list and click 'Edit Profile'. Any changes will be applied to all of the selected profiles.
The other option if you want to customise settings for a specific tab is to use the command-line 'konsoleprofile' tool. This can be used to change the settings for the current tab using:
konsoleprofile settings=value
eg:
konsoleprofile colors=BlackOnWhite konsoleprofile font=monospace,12
This works with all of the settings for a tab. The setting names and values are stored in the same format as your .profile files stored in $HOME/.kde/share/apps/konsole You can put these commands in a script somewhere and run those to change the terminal setup.
Regards, Robert.
