Bug 449192

This is often requested but I don’t understand how’s that usable.
Why you don’t create bash functions tied to your bashrc and calls them?
What would be the benefits of having a panel on Konsole for that?

In my case it would be useful because I manage a number of servers and I don't want to add more scripts than needed for their normal work. But if I had to do some debug/check work there are some line I will run every time.

* Add some tools that are not already installed on minimal distros (vim, various net tools).
* Run some check routine
* Common queries I run on a database, again for debug. 

Sure, all things you can do in many ways already. Just a nice feature to have.

I suppose it would be a nice extension, but I didn't found how to write one.

If you’re a developer I can help you get started.
Take a look on the source code for the ssh plugin, and let’s start from
there.

I feared such an answer... OK, challenge accepted 👍

In case of need should I ask for help here or is there a better place?

I agree that bash functions would make more sense. Most people tend to do this.

For arbitrary text you might want to paste, I think it would make more sense for the to be integrated into the systemwide clipboard, e.g. with https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/1265.
