If starting terminal by Function key button (F9) - terminal starts from current directory selected in panel. But If starting terminal by 'Tools' -> 'Start terminal' menu entry - terminal starts from home (default) directory and not from current directory selected in panel.
Because there are two actions: * "Start terminal from here" - F9 * "Start terminal" - CTRL+F2 We could add the first one also to the "Tools" menu to make this clear.
Nowadays this seems to be solved (using the git version of Krusader). Feel free to reopen this bug report if you think it's necessary :-)
