Version: (using KDE KDE 3.2.0) Actually, switch from Edit part to Konsole part is a pain. I use Kate to program, and love the embedded Konsole. So I can have all feature in one window : no need to open all sort of apps. But when I want to compile I must go to Konsole. And then, after testing/debugging, I must go back to file edit. Theire is actually no shortcut (and no possibility to assign) to switch those two modes. Actually, it's faster to start a normal Konsole and browse via Alt+Tab !! It's why I've said "Uregent" in title : theire is no sense to have embedded Konsole if stand-alone Konsole in anyway needed. Thanks.
the workaround is to bind a key to show/hide konsole.
