<title>What is a terminal?</title> |

|
<para>&konsole; is an X terminal |
|
emulator, often referred to as a terminal or a shell. It emulates a command line interface in a text only window. |
|
</para> |
|
|
|
<para>&konsole; typically runs a command shell, an application that executes commands that you type. |
|
The shell the &konsole; runs depends on your account settings. |
|
Consult your operating system documentation to know what the shell is, how to configure it and how to use it. |

|
<title>Scrollback</title> |
|
|
|
<para>&konsole; uses the notion of scrollback |
|
to allow users to view previously displayed output. |
|
By default, scrollback is on |
|
and set to save 1000 lines of |
|
output in addition to what is currently displayed on the screen. |
|
As lines of text scroll off the top of the screen, they can be reviewed |
|
by moving the scroll bar upwards, scrolling with a mouse wheel or through |
|
the use of the |
|
<keycombo action="simul">&Shift;<keycap>Page Up</keycap></keycombo> (to move |
|
back a page), |
|
<keycombo action="simul">&Shift;<keycap>Page Down</keycap></keycombo> (to move forward a page), |
|
<keycombo action="simul">&Shift;<keycap>Up Arrow</keycap></keycombo> (to move up a line) and |
|
<keycombo action="simul">&Shift;<keycap>Down Arrow</keycap></keycombo> (to move down a line) keys. |

<title>Mouse Buttons</title> |

|
|
<para>This section details the use of the mouse buttons for the common |
|
right handed mouse button order. |
|
For the left handed mouse button order, swap left and right in the text below. |

|
|
|
<listitem><para> All &LMB; clicks will be sent to a mouse-aware |
|
application running in &konsole;. |
|
If an application will react on mouse clicks, &konsole; |
|
indicates this by showing an arrow cursor. If not, an I-beam (bar) |
|
cursor is shown.</para> |
|
|
|
<para>Holding the &LMB; down and |
|
dragging the mouse over the screen with a mouse-unaware application |
|
running will mark a region of the text. While dragging the mouse, the marked |
|
text is displayed in reversed color for visual feedback. Select <guimenuitem>Copy</guimenuitem> |
|
from the <guimenu>Edit</guimenu> menu to copy the marked text to the clipboard for further use |
|
within &konsole; or another application. The selected text can also be |
|
dragged and dropped into compatible applications. Hold the &Ctrl; key and |
|
drag the selected text to the desired location.</para> |
|
|
|
<para>Normally, new-line characters are inserted at the end of each |
|
line selected. This is best for cut and paste of source code, or the output |
|
of a particular command. For ordinary text, the line breaks are often |
|
not important. One might prefer, however, for the text to be a stream |
|
of characters that will be automatically re-formatted when pasted into |
|
another application. To select in text-stream mode, hold down the |
|
&Ctrl; key while selecting normally.</para> |
|
|
|
<para>Pressing the &Ctrl; and &Alt; keys along with the &LMB; |
|
will select text in columns. |
|
</para> |
|
|
|
<para>Double-click with the &LMB; to select a word; |
|
triple-click to select an entire line.</para> |
|
|
|
<para>If the upper or lower edge of the text area is touched while |
|
marking, &konsole; scrolls up or down, eventually exposing text within |
|
the history buffer. The scrolling stops when the mouse stops |
|
moving.</para> |
|
|
|
<para>After the mouse is released, &konsole; attempts to keep the text |
|
in the clipboard visible by holding the marked area reversed. The |
|
marked area reverts back to normal as soon as the contents of the |
|
clipboard change, the text within the marked area is altered or the |
|
&LMB; is clicked.</para> |
|
|
|
<para>To mark text in a mouse-aware application (Midnight Commander, for example) |
|
the &Shift; key has to be pressed when clicking.</para> |

with caution. |

There is a hidden feature for the "%d" formatter in tab title. You can tell &konsole; to abbreviate a directory name into its first character. For example, "/path/to/konsole/src" can be abbreviated into "konsole/s". If you want to enable and control this hidden feature, open <filename>~/.kde4/share/config/konsolerc</filename> and add following lines:</para> |

[ProcessInfo] |

By default when started from a terminal, &konsole; will run in the background. Use <option>--nofork</option> to force &konsole; to run in the foreground. |

This is needed for some scripts and commands to work as expected: |

In KDE3, each tab had its own process ID. However, in KDE4, all the tabs use the same process ID. This has the side-effect that if one tab's process has issues, all the other tabs may experience issues as well. |

This is most noticeable when a command that connects to an external device or system (ssh, nfs) has issues. |

&konsole; treats arguments after the <option>-e</option> option as one command and runs it directly, instead of parsing it and possibly dividing it into sub-commands for execution. This is different from xterm. |

&konsole; doesn't provide convenience for running login shell, because developers don't like the idea of running login shell in a terminal emulator. |
|
</para> |
|
<para> |
|
Of course, users still can run login shell in &konsole; if they really need to. Edit the profile in use and modify its command to the form of starting a login shell explicitly, such as "<command>bash -l</command>" and "<command>zsh -l</command>". |

The <option>--new-tab</option> option sometimes behaves strangely. It may create new window, or it may create new tab in another existing &konsole; window instead of the current &konsole; window. |
|
</para> |
|
<para> |
|
Those behaviors feel strange, but they are not necessarily bugs. The <option>--new-tab</option> option tries to reuse existing &konsole; windows, but not all &konsole; windows are reusable. All &konsole; windows opened through &krunner; are reusable, while most &konsole; windows opened from command line are not. |
