Description Thomas Eriksson 2006-03-09 11:59:49 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

I'm the author of the Bashish console theme engine, http://bashish.sf.net

I intend to port Bashish to konsole. What I have got working so far (prototyping) is fg/bg and 16-color changing by generating schemas on the fly.

I have not been able to implement font changing since I found no way of changing fonts except interactively, so my wish is for the Konsole devs to add the following attribute under the session-[n] "class" in dcop:

void setFont(QFont font)

and if possible the following to ease scriptability, so one doesn't have to
write a C++ helper :)
void setFontName(String fontname)
void setFontSize(int size)

a third option would be to add the font as a variable in the Schema.

(I'm using an old version of console, but from looking at the changelog, no such feature have appeared)

Patch to add DCOP calls for settings font

Too late to make it into KDE 3.5.3.

% dcop konsole-19829 session-1 font
DejaVu Sans Mono,14,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
% dcop konsole-19829 session-1 setFont Cheq,8,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0
% dcop konsole-19829 session-1 font
