Description Gerry 2009-03-15 13:24:46 UTC 
Version:           2.2 (using 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.27-11-generic

In the scrollback, it's really hard to tell where one command ends and the next one starts. It would be an enormous usability improvement if the prompt line, or the text that I enter, was in a different color to the rest of the text in Konsole.

Never mind, found the solution:
$gedit .bashrc

Uncomment the line:
#force_color_prompt=yes

Save and reopen Konsole.

Sorry for being an Linux noob. :)
