Description vinzenz.hersche 2019-07-20 23:06:38 UTC
Hey,
first thank you for this nice piece of software. It makes my all-day-computerlife so much easier! :)

However, i had the idea to make my bootprocess of my dev-enviroment a bit faster. Everything what i write here should be in context to the already running instance. I imagine something like a bash-script, that would execute

yakuake --new-tab="Whatevername" --run="/usr/bin/cat /dev/urandom"

I don't like to do specifications here, as i am not shure about qt/kf's argument-system works atm, but those both commands would be very usefull, at least to me ;)

What i also can imagine as usefull is maybe split screens and run commands in them or even bind in shortcuts.. i think, if it would be coupled with shortcuts, allmost all possibilitys would be already avaible. but not shure this makes sense in your structure.

Would be a dream for productivity and repeated stuff! :)

Best regards

Vinzenz

Most of these are possible via Yakuake's D-Bus scripting interface. Could you have a look at that and reopen if you find anything missing?

u rock! thank you, i know this isn't a support-forum and appriciate that therefore even more!

the only thing left i can imagine is then a hint on the help-message, so others don't open similiar reports ;)
