Description Javi Dieguez 2004-12-30 15:41:03 UTC
Version:           1.3 (using KDE KDE 3.2.1KDE 1.2)
Installed from:    Debian stable PackagesDebian stable Packages
OS:                Linux

when defining Konsole "sessions", I have noticed that, whatever I put in the Exec field, what is actually called is

/usr/local/bin/tcsh -c **contents of Exec field**

but i would rather have konsole be using tcsh -fc
for some particular sessions, so as to avoid loading the .cshrc initialization files that i don't always need.
AFAIK, there is no way to change this behaviour, neither via the settings dialog, or the actual configuration file ".desktop".

Konsole "profiles" don't have this problem. you can actually to to the configuration file and edit the actual shell invoked (and its arguments), editing the "Args" lines, eg:

Args0=/usr/local/bin/tcsh,-fc,***contents of Exec field***

however, i'm missing the same level of configurability when defining individual sessions.

I'm pretty sure this has been fixed since long ago.  Either way, works correctly in KDE 3 and upcoming 4.
