Description Daniel Moyne 2006-12-27 11:18:10 UTC
Version:           1.6.5 (using KDE 3.5.5, Kubuntu (edgy) 4:3.5.5-0ubuntu3)
Compiler:          Target: x86_64-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.17-10-generic

when using the console attached to the kate editor for example when compiling a Java source file I am surprised not to find the history of recent command lines with this console as logically expected ; maybe this has todo with the kate editor which should save this console history as a kate session ?

Can this be activated or is it a recent bug ?
Regards

When you say "histroy of recent command lines" are you referring to previous lines of output which are normally accessed in Konsole by dragging the scrollbar on the right-hand side of the window?

I am talking about the console that is attached to the bottom of the kate editor that you typically use to run a Perl or to compile a Java programme for example.

When you reopen the kate editor on the same Java file you would expect the history of latest commands used to be available !

I see.  The console in the Kate editor doesn't know anything about Kate itself.  

Depending on the shell program you are using, it may be possible to search through the previous commands that you have entered - that is a facility which is separate from Konsole.  If you press Ctrl+R in the Bash shell (which is used in many Linux distributions) for example you can search incrementally though the history of previous commands.

Closing as I cannot see how this can be implemented.
