Description Simon 2018-03-22 10:13:27 UTC 
Hi,

I would like to propose the following new feature for konsole:

Konsole already supports searching in the terminal window and it also updates the search result when new text appears. Konsole can also monitor a tab for activity/inactivity, but it cannot yet monitor a tab for a search expression.

What I would like to have is a "watch for search expression", that alerts me when in a background tab a specific word or sentence or regular expression is found in the terminal output.

Thanks & Regards
Simon
