Description Dotan Cohen 2009-06-23 16:44:27 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.90)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

It would be nice if konsole accepted arguements when started. Then, one could type into Krunner, for instance, "konsole ifconfig" and be taken right to the info that he needs.

Thanks.

You can use

konsole --noclose -e <command> <args>

-e specifies the command and arguments to run, --noclose stops the terminal window from closing once the command has finished executing.

Note that any Konsole arguments must go before arguments to the command-line program.

In that case, I have requested a wrapper for konsole:
