Version: (using Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources OS: Linux I miss the option to open a new terminal session (Konsole) using the current directory in Dolphin. It is present in Konqueror under Tools->Open Terminal (F4). I noticed it is possible to attach a terminal to Dolphin with the same F4 shortcut, however I prefer to have a standalone terminal session. It would be great if another option was added to open a new terminal, and also the possibility to change the shortcuts. Right now the F4 shortcut for Terminal Panel is not even visible in Settings->Configure Shortcuts.

I also vote for this.
I also vote for this. It is about the only think stopping me from moving to KDE4.
The functionality for this already exists in Dolphin 1.2 (not sure about earlier versions). In 1.2 right click the folder you want to open in the konsole and click Actions->Open Terminal Here. In 1.2.80 (this is in Trunk), right click the folder you want to open in the konsole and click Open Terminal Here.

To quote the original request again: "I miss the option to open a new terminal session (Konsole) using the *current* directory in Dolphin." Get the difference? If not try to open / in Konsole from Dolphin. Regards, Felix
Created attachment 31955 [details] Here is a patch for requested feature A simple implementation of opening a detached terminal from Dolphin. This is my first patch, so some one should review it :)
SVN commit 937624 by ppenz: Provide an "Open Terminal" entry for the Tools menu (thanks to Rahman Duran for the patch!) BUG: 164746 M +12 -0 dolphinmainwindow.cpp M +3 -0 dolphinmainwindow.h M +2 -2 dolphinui.rc WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=937624
I've tried the patch and it works great. The only other thing I would add is the ability to configure the standard Terminal toggle in the KShortcutsEditor. That way, you could completely configure the F4 key to open a detached terminal.

Any idea when these patches are going to be put into the source? As of 4.2.2 they haven't been.
@Even: They have been added to KDE 4.3. Only bug fixes will be committed to KDE 4.2.x
