Tutorials and Tips

Language

With Konsole you can change the language to plain English (to see bugs info for example) by command:

export LANG=C

Shortcuts

• Switch tab: Shift + Left, Shift + Right (not like X-Chat, Firefox, Quanta, Kdevelop).

Note

Quanta and Kdevelop use Alt + Left, Alt + Right. However, Shift + Direction has the advantage of being reachable with one hand on virtually all keyboard layouts, while Alt keys are sometimes only on the left of the keyboard (e.g. in Germany).

• New tab: Shift + Ctrl + T.

Label your Tabs

Double Click to Rename Tab

If you regularly use a lot of tabs, you'll sometimes find it convenient to label them. Just double-click on the tab and you'll get a re-name dialogue.

Profile Management

• To add a new profile go to Settings -> Profile Management -> New Profile
• On the General tab, enter the new profile name and change the icon if desired.
• If this is to be a root konsole, enter the command

  /bin/su -

   :

Tip

This command will not work on any distro that uses sudo (like Ubuntu). On such distributions use:

sudo su

or just prepend all your commands that requires superuser privileges with sudo.

• Font size can also be changed on the Appearance tab.

Editing a profile

• On the Manage Profiles screen you can add or remove a star, which controls whether that profile is to be offered on the File menu.
