Description Thomas Koeller 2002-09-14 00:08:39 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.3)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:          Linux

Running a bash shell in konsole, I set the prompt string like so: PS1="\e]2;\w\a\e[34;1m\! \s-\v \$\e[0m ". This should set the text foreground color to blue and also set the 'bold' attribute. However, the 'bold' attribute is ineffective for the first session in a konsole window, while it does take effect in the second and all following sessions. Another problem is that konsole recognizes the CSI sequence only if the seven-bit encoding '\e[' is used, the equivalent eight-bit encoding '\233' is not recognized.

The bold is dependant on the color scheme used. If you select "Xterm Colors",
you will get bold.

I will add support for /233

Support for /233 has been added for KDE 3.1
