so, again, why not just use Konsole?
Konsole has a title bar and a menu bar, and a bottom bar that are just a bother when using mc. I want none of them.
You seemed to imply there is something broken or buggy about using MC in Konsole. Xterms here have title bars. Menu bars don't bother me. I use them. The bottom bar is for the tabs, which can be moved to the top.
Plus, the font used with mc is just less readable than xterm's.
Konsole defaults to a dumb font that comes in exactly one size, but lets you pick any font on the system, which I do. OTOH, default Xterm fonts are about 1/4 legible size, maybe about 4pt here, _totally_ unreadable without sticking my nose up against the display.
When I use dozens of xterms with mc inside, a dozen of konsoles are a nuisance compared to a dozen of xterms.
I usually have no more than a dozen open at once, in no more than about 2 windows, since Konsole has tabs, like all modern web browsers. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
