Concept Art for distro hoppers.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Be a newcomer and distro hopper and try to do something common, such as installing/removing/updating something.

OBSERVED RESULT
It will be very confusing, and require a lot of Googling or even AI, which shouldn't be the case.

EXPECTED RESULT
When typing "sudo dnf " there should be a few suggestions under it, like "sudo dnf install packagename" and "sudo dnf remove packagename".
In case the command is wrong (mostly due to distro hopping), it could should the correct command, like "sudo apt-get install packagename" in case the user is using Kubuntu.
That would make the terminal more flashy/intuitive for newcomers.

Concept Art for corrections.

Corrections would be a a bit more difficult to implement, but even if it is solely dedicated for wrong words, instead of typos, I think it would be good enough.
Comment 3 Fernando M. Muniz 2025-10-30 01:23:36 UTC
Apparently only distros could implement this. That's too bad.
Comment 4 Ben Guy-Williams 2025-10-30 06:07:32 UTC
Is this not a shell function?

What's being suggested here is advanced BASH, ZSH, or FISH configurations for Konsole... not Konsole itself.
