Description Elmar Stellnberger (AT/K) 2007-05-07 17:19:49 UTC

Version:           1.6.6 (using KDE 3.5.6 "release 77.1" , openSUSE )
Compiler:          Target: i586-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.16.21-0.25-default

Whenever I drag a file from Konqueror onto Konsole holding down the left mouse button I will get a menu of file operations to be pasted into konsole in advance to the URL of the file itself.
  Most times I do only need the URL itself. My proposial would be to make a difference between left and middle mouse button drags: e.g. no menu but direct insertion on left button drags / menu on middle button drags - or the other way round.

Additionally if I select a command like cd or cp from the menu I would expect a Home/Pos1 to be issued before pasting the text because otherwise the command will appear somewhere in the middle which is an error:

wrong: xxyyy ln '/home/usr/mydir'
better: ln -s '/home/usr/mydir' xxyyy 

wrong: xxyyy cd '/home/usr/mydir' <LF>
better: cd '/home/usr/mydir'  <LF>
        xxyyy

Fixed in KDE 4.0.  The popup menu which appears on drag and drop was removed.
