Summary: first line missing in stdout with execute command line option
Product: [Applications] konsole Reporter: guez
Component: generalAssignee: Konsole Developer <konsole-devel>
Status: RESOLVED REMIND

Description guez 2007-06-15 11:24:15 UTC
Version:           1.6.4 (using KDE 3.5.4, compiled sources)
Compiler:          Target: i586-mandriva-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.17-14mdv

Consider the file "test.txt" with the following content:

$ cat test.txt
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13
14
15
16
17
18
19
20
21
22
23
24
25
26


If the default size of Konsole is 80x25 (PC IBM) then the command:

$ konsole --noclose -e cat test.txt 

produces a window with the result of the "cat" command, except that there is a blank line instead of the first line. If you decrease the number of lines below 25 in "test.txt" then you get all the lines, including the first. If you increase the number of lines, say to 40 lines for example, then you get all the lines (you can scroll to see them) except the first that is blank again.

I believe this is an instance of another bug which was fixed in KDE 1.6.5.  Can you confirm whether the bug is still present?

KDE3 is no longer supported.  Reopen if you can duplicate this in KDE 4.
