Description Robert-André Mauchin 2020-12-19 08:54:29 UTC
I'd like to see an "Open Terminal Here" below "Open Containing Folder" in Documents, Filesystem Browser and the Tab contextual menus. It would be useful as the Terminal panel doesn't support tabs.

Thanks.

Kai, would such a job make sense similar to Open Containing Folder?

If we hard-code it in Kate, it'll be broken on Windows. Or is there alread some platform independent solution?

@Robert: you can use the External Tools plugin to add a button to the toolbar.

There's a relatively new KToolInvocation::invokeTerminal which seems to have a Windows implementation, too.

The option is available in the Projects treeview since 21.08
