Description Ganton 2013-03-04 12:37:46 UTC
Using: Konsole 2.9.2 in Kubuntu 12.10.

I had a Konsole opened with some tabs, with different purposes (as usually people do), and each tab had its name changed. I bookmarked them all. 

I switched off the computer, I launched a new Konsole, restored the tabs... but the information about the name of the tabs was lost, so a lot of them were indistinguishable.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Konsole
2. Open several tabs.
3. Rename several tabs, this way indicating what was each tab about.
4. Bookmark all tabs in a "bookmark folder".
5. Open a new Konsole.
6. Retrieve the "bookmark folder".
7. The names that had the tabs  are not retrieved.
Actual Results:  
The tabs "directories" are retrieved, but not the names of the tabs.

Expected Results:  
The tabs names could be retrieved, it's easy to accomplish and allows users to differentiate one tab from the others, one work from the other.

Thanks for the good Konsole!

Hi, what do you have your tab title format set to?  For example the default is %d : %n

And what are some examples of your renaming?

It's the default.

I attach a screenshot, with examples of names of tabs, and how the name of a tab is changed, simply using the secondary button and writing a new name.

Yea that's what I thought - you have manually entered titles (monitoring 1) instead of %w %d

This doesn't seem like a bug, but rather a feature request.
Features I think would make Konsole bookmarks super userful for terminal power users:
* remember custom (local/remote) names of tabs
* remember tab colours
* remember tab splits

I'm not familiar with the KDE codebase or the development workflow, but I'm comfortable with C++ and probably wouldn't mind giving a shot at implementing this.

Tab names and tab colours seem like a relatively simple addition (tab splits not so much, given how when affect tab names, so it can get messy).

Are there any pointers to where to get started in case I'd like to try and implement names and colours as part of the bookmarked information?

Or are there reasons within the KDE ecosystem which are detrimental to the implementation of these features?
