Hello there,
is there an official way to make a plugin for Konsole without having to make a pull request for merging into the repository or patching the source code (adding plugin in the plugins directory) ?
I was hoping to find some headers that exported functions to use, so Konsole could dynamically load my plugin, but I could not find anything like that.

In fact, I'm wanting to make a small plugin for splits:

The feature I want to add is a way to make all splits (possibly also even automatically, so even if you are resizing the window) having the same rectangle size, it actually gets resized correctly with 2 splits, but when I add 3 splits, they don't really align each others so I have to manually resize them every-time.

Thank you for your reply in advance.

Right, I didn't know, because apparently https://konsole.kde.org/users.html said that feature requests could be asked there.
But, thanks I'll do that.
