Description Filipe Azevedo 2016-06-28 20:53:10 UTC

Add support for --new-tab command line parameter so i can open a new tab easily from another program.
Generally, adding more Konsole command line parameters would be a good idea, like -e <command> etc.

Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
Possible to open new tab and execute command.
This way i can replace Konsole by Yakuake in QtCreator configuration.

Shell script to simplify DBus calls to Yakuake

Comment 4 Peter J. Mello 2020-01-21 01:15:56 UTC

That functionality has been part of Yakuake for several years now, accessible via DBus. Attached is a shell script named yaknewtab that I've used without issue for awhile to help you get the hang of it. Just chmod +x yaknewtab then mv it to one of the folders in your $PATH. I hope this answers your question.

Warmly,
Peter

Thanks for taking the time to share your script.
While i would have preferred to see a new command line added, this will fit perfectly.
